Dylan,
The only way for this to make sense is to come to a town with a minor league ballpark, and spend the summer in the stands, drinking beer, and being educated by the local fans. Otherwise, obviously, the game makes no sense. So, being the good hearted being that I am, I volunteer. If you buy the tickets and the beer, I'll sit there next to you and help you watch the game, er, educate you on the nuances of the sport. *G*
