BUT the game of Major League Baseball has bases measured at 90 FEET apart in a diamond configuration.




Good points all Mr. Argo. I've always who first thought up the 90' on a side? Why not 85' or 100'? A ninety foot diamond does make it the perfect game. Not to mention 4 balls/3 strikes, brilliant. The only stumble in my humble opinion was when the powers that be got all hopped up on steroids & stadium beer and legalized the designated hitter. If you pick up a bat , you should also pick up a fielders (Not Prince) glove. It cheapens the game, plays to wall street or marketing revenue.

For that reason, I tend to favour the National League teams
