You can't be in Canada without having seen a baseball game, so there we went. Thanks to Max, who explained the rules to Clemence and me on our last visit, we were able to follow it sort of - and able to explain to the guys what was happening :) We even recognized some of the players, like Bautista, who had the record of home runs so far in the season (52 or so).
It started off quite well for the Jays, lots of points, home runs, and action in the first four innings, but then nothing happened anymore. The Yankees made a few points so that it got tight in the end, but the Jays still won. Apparently the next day, the Jays would put up their better team...There are a lot of breaks in this game - somehow they have to fit in commercials every five minutes on TV! In the stadium, there's then lots of lotteries, and animations, funny at first but it gets quite annoying after a while.
Homerun!
My verdict on baseball - it would be a great game in 4-5 innings, but nine is a bit long and boring...
