What Makes Baseball Great

• Ground rules

  • every ballpark has different ground rules, leading sometimes to debate about their design (hello Fenway Park). What? Yankee Stadium, New Comisky, and Kaufmann Stadium don't have special ground rules? Boring.

• Walk off wins

• Home runs after brush back pitches

• Walkup music for pitchers when they come into a game and batters when they come to bat
