RE: “...T-ball. Every kid out there (and every parent) knows exactly what the score is.”
Have you ever been to a T-ball game? Half the kids don’t know which base is first. A game with 3 outs recorded TOTAL (not just in an inning) is a defensive masterpiece.
Two of my six kids played t-ball. The rest weren’t allowed to be on a team until they played something that vaguely resembled baseball. T-ball resembles track for the team hitting and rugby for the team fielding.
Thanks for the note and the colorful description of T-ball. I have to confess, my kids did not play T-ball. Mine played basketball, and everyone DID know the score.
T-ball was easier to type than basketball.
I defer to your judgement on the subjct.
