Someone should do a tea towel explaining baseball to foreigners
It took me a while and a bit of background reading, but I came to appreciate baseball, its complexities and strategies, every bit as involved as cricket. I have spent many happy hours at the SkyDome in Toronto and watch one or two games a week on line during the season.
It is also the background to one of my favourite sports related fiction writers, W P Kinsella. Field of Dreams was based on one of his stories.
