Basketball is a much more emotional game, and by this I mean you have 10 bodies all within a confined space with pushing & shoving (not all of which is called a foul) which escalates tempers. Couple this with several hundred or a few thousand people sitting right next to the playing area screaming at the top of their lungs for the entire game, and you have a possibly volitile experience.

Baseball is played in a much more open area with less of a chance of opposing players coming in physical contact. The fans are seated away from much of the action, and the loud noise isn't confined in an enclosed space.

I do basketball as well. The reason refs get of the court quickly is simple: to avoid dangerous fans!
