Not a big soccer fan, but how is baseball interesting or entertaining in any way?

Baseball, unlike soccer, actually has this feature called "scoring." In modern professional baseball a tie is an impossible result too.

Aside from the above, baseball is the quintessential American ball sport. Half of the game, you have to play as a cooperative team on defense. The other half, you are pretty much the rugged individualist during your turn at bat, because no one else can help you get on base.

Apart even from any of that, undeniably great athletes such as Bo Jackson, Deion Sanders, and Michael Jordan, have found that playing high level football or basketball was easier than was playing professional baseball because consistently hitting a baseball that can move dramatically at speeds as low as the mid 60s, or be whizzed straight by you like a thunderbolt at 101mph, is one of the hardest feats in all of sport.
