0-0 is a draw.

In some cases, why bother to "play" at all? I'm serious. What's the point in grown men trying to move an oblate spheroid from one end of a field to another against the wishes of other grown men? Or to figure the point of contact of a wooden or aluminum club with a sphere thrown well in excess of 150 kilometers per hour in such a way that a muscle-driven arc of the club will propel the sphere away from the hitter, and all this in a one-g field? -- the math alone is mind boggling!

And the people who do these things are paid far in excess of, say, a good teacher....
