“Oh, baseball. What’s wrong with you?”
This seems to be the question on everybody’s lips. Or, in the digital age, on their fingers.
Nobody wants to talk about what’s great about baseball anymore. Discussions on the sport have essentially become an extension of the nightly news, where controversy and bad feelings have overtaken any of the good things that could be focused upon instead.
By no means am I saying that baseball is not without its warts, because there are certainly some things about it that could use some cleaning up, but there are so many more beautiful things about the game than some people are willing to give it credit for.
