There is a problem that has plagued the nations of the world and by extension the American Public for a very long time, since before the handheld mobile phone being tapped by the government, since before the unrest in the middle east, since before the people were aware we were melting the icecaps. I’m not talking about laws of war, I am talking about a much larger battlefield, one upheld in the minds and hearts of gentlemen and ladies who duel to uphold their honor and pride. I am of course talking about the green fields and sandy dunes and calm lakes and the grassy hills and the tree roots of the battlefield upon which men and women defend their honor in times of peace, when challenges are civil. I am talking about the golf course. After a

Baseball was introduced to America in the 1800s. As the game of baseball started to become popular, many people became interested in the game. Baseball fanatics fell in love with the sport, but not everyone could play. Racial discrimination found its way to baseball when the game was first discovered and created many controversies that prevented many colored players from playing the game because of their skin color. This could be part of the reason why in today’s culture, you do not see many black Americans playing the game of baseball. The steady decline in black Americans playing baseball could also be contributed to other sports like basketball and football started to become more popular and they just simply lost interest in baseball.

The game of baseball saw a great amount of growth, exciting ballplayers, and the creation of professional teams that would eventually soon become known as Major League Baseball, MLB.

Baseball is an American sport and it has been a sport since the 1800’s. I started playing baseball when I was only four years old and I still play till this day. My journey in high school playing baseball had it’s up and downs. Not making the high school baseball team as a freshman was not a good feeling, but experiencing that feeling of failure made me a better baseball player in the up coming years. Baseball was very important in my life at the time. My parents just got a divorce and I was trying to learn how to live with that. Baseball was my place for happiness when I was growing up. I didn't anticipate learning an important life lesson that would define my love for the game even more then I already did.

Baseball; America’s pastime. The history of the game is just as much a part of America’s story as the Liberty Bell. There is no place that history is preserved more than the small town of 1,800 residents, Cooperstown, NY; home of the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Since 1936, the Hall of Fame has immortalized 215 of the most revered men to ever grace a ball diamond. Nearly every era of the game is depicted; with names like Cobb, Ruth, DiMaggio, Williams, and Mantle forever having their likeness emblazoned in Bronze, telling their stories for generations to come (Baseball Hall, n.d.). However, there is one era that has no representation for immortality and there is a large debate as to if it ever should; the Steroid Era.

The game baseball has been around for more than a century and is still one of the most famous sports in America.

The history of baseball goes all the way back to the 1800s, and is a sport played in many countries around the world. Baseball is one of America’s most popular sports, and it would not be called America’s Pastime if it wasn’t. The rules of baseball might be simple to grasp, but the game in itself is very difficult. Baseball has history that cannot be forgotten and rivalries in the American and National Leagues that cannot be ignored, these things fuel peoples burning desires within to play and watch this thrilling game.

Baseball was meant to be a sport for people to play and to have fun while doing it. It was like that for a while until drugs such as steroids started becoming more accessible.

With all the different sports America has today, baseball is America’s pastime. It might not be the most popular sport in America today, but it is what started America’s interest in sports. Baseball started out as an amateur sport and had an unorganized set of rules. The Knickerbockers Base Ball Club of New York was the first organized baseball team to have a set of rules (Mondout) and some of those rules are still used in today’s game. This club made the first twenty rules of baseball. Sense then the rules has become more and more complex as time went on. The first league was introduced in 1976, and it was called The National League. The national league was made up of sixteen teams, and this is when the rules started to change frequently.

Baseball is one of America’s oldest sports and changed through history. It started in the late 1800s. People consider it as America’s pastime because people have grown up playing it.

There is records that look impossible to break and traditions that will never be stopped. Like when people sing “Take Me Out to the Ballgame.” in the 7th inning. Also when people throw the Ceremonial First Pitch. Baseball is one of America's most popular sports and interesting to study who were the original teams and who discovered it and how has it changed.

I thought baseball or your place in it, was all about talent. I was wrong. Baseball was more than just that. It was politics. It had a political component to it that no one explained to the 17-year old that started and that I never understood until after I was done playing.

Look I love baseball, I love watching it, playing it, but the only flaw to me playing baseball is that I suck. I truly really suck. I’m so bad that if I wished a million times to be a great baseball player it wouldn’t come true, that’s how bad I am.
