With baseball depending upon the time of the year it could be 35 degrees or in the 90's. you change in the parking lot. No showers, not unusual for the bus to be late therfore you don't start on time and once the game starts you don't get a (between innings no break you can't sit down) break. The game could be over in an hour and a half or it could take over two hours. The ball can hurt you.
Ain't it great!
All this baseball talk, I can't WAIT for spring (considering the snow/ice/rain storm we are getting). Can't say I usually feel the need for a break during a baseball game (maybe working plate in 100 degree weather for a drink). I initially became a basketball ref to stay in shape for baseball and pass the winter by. Right away, I loved basketball for it's own merits and challanges and fun. I have more passion for baseball and it is in my heart and soul. I think basketball is harder to officiate effectively, without question.
My first game theoretically March 18. Always look forward to the first game.
