I love baseball, and this picture shows why. Baseball is a team sport, but it is made up of individual achievements and failures. Everyone has to be able to hit the ball. Everyone has to be able to field the ball. Contrast that with football where you might play a whole season without touching the ball. Compare it to soccer where you might play defense in the back of the field and never get the opportunity to attempt a goal.
