What's Wrong with Baseball in the Summer? Part 2

Ah yes, it has been a week, so I will write part 2 on my experiences with fans at baseball game. The next one, isn't that bad to most fans, it really just bothers the people who have played the game before (myself included).

The next issue is when fans go nuts over every single pop-up to shallow centerfield as if it's a 450ft. blast in the upper deck. I mean come on, seriously? Is your depth perception really that bad? Can you not see the outfielder running in to catch the ball?

It's like all of those fans watch soccer on Spanish TV and are used to hearing the announcer go nuts anytime the ball is even close to a goal. In a 1-0 game in soccer, those announcers must get excited to the point where a goal has to be imminent like 40x's a game. That's what the baseball fans do.

My advice: learn to read a flyball of the bat. It's not that hard.

I will give a pass to those fans only when the flyball makes it to the warning track.
