Default The players of yesterday

Posted By: Bryan Long

You are right. Baseball is a game of skill and art and that is why it is great.

Baseball, I think, did wrong when they made it no longer a sport, but a show. They have taken every advantage away from the pitcher and given it to the hitter because that is what drives ticket prices. People want to see the long ball. No one cares about the skill of laying down the perfect bunt to move the runner from second to third.
