It is an American Original sport (although, it is very close tot he Scottish game Rounders, and resembles Cricket as well)
This next video is of fans catching the ball in US Major League Stadiums!

I remember the Christmas morning I got my first baseball glove. I opened the box and there it was a baseball glove. It was cold outside. So the glove sat on my dresser. It was worked and oiled every day in anticipation of playing catch with my dad in the spring.
That day arrived and it was existing. My dad threw the ball to me, I pointed my glove at the ball, missed and the ball hit me in the eye. I got a nice black eye.
I got better as I got older, and my love of baseball has never waned!

The Korean Baseball Organization has been way better than expected, so I am glad that they are playing because the MLB will more than likely not play due to bad negotiating tactics going on right now between the owners and the players once again.
i stand by my prediction – they will be playing end of June! it is all about money now, but it is less money than it was before.
Korean baseball has been very fun to watch
It looks like a very interesting sport. This sport is not popular in our country.
it is not big in Europe that is true!
I still have Dustin’s glove. We played catch back and forth often.
playing catch, or having a catch as my dad always called it, was so important
Indeed, if I only had known just how important at the time.
my grandfather died in August now nearly 25 years ago. He had visited my parents and I filmed him talking. we made a plan to film him again at Christmas.
we never got to do that. I wish now I had started earlier.
