BASEBALL

When baseball comes around each Spring

it becomes the most popular thing.

I don't think there's anything more fun

than playing baseball in the sun.

I hope to be in the big leagues someday.

I want to be on the Red Sox and play at Fenway.

Baseball is known as America's pastime. People like Babe Ruth make it be. Babe Ruth had the second most amount of homeruns with 714. Hank Aaron has the most, but it took him 4,000 more at-bats to hit 41 more homeruns. It's also fun to collect baseball cards. A few very rare ones can be worth over $1,000 dollars including the 1906 Honus Wagner card. In 1996 it was auctioned for $667,000!
