I love how Patrick just set himself free from "youtube rules". He is just making the videos however the hell he wants. I'm sure Kiki is very proud of you, my man.

Hey, there was baseball in Space Jam, too.

I hope one day Patrick understands that Space Jam being rancidly bad is precisely what makes it so good

Soccer was the only sport you didn't mention how easy it is to play on the street, like it's the one that's easier than basketball and baseball because you don't need baskets or bats, hell sometimes you don't even need a ball. I've seen kids on the street ball up all their socks into one big ball to play street soccer and put two rocks in a row to create a goal. Or crush up soda cans to form a puck and kick that around to play soccer. But I guess that culture exists more around the world than the US.

I would like to nominate the "I Don't Dance" scene from High School Musical 2 as the best baseball scene

Nolan may hate the sport, but he recognized its cinematic potential enough to put a baseball scene in Interstellar.

As a native Philadelphian, I'm pretty pissed that Patrick didn't spend all 46 minutes of this video talking about how the Eagles are the greatest team in sports history and Rocky is the greatest sports movie to ever exist. So pissed that I can't even finish my cheesesteak.

Baseball evolved with cinema...just as American Football evolved with television

Ya know, I'm startin' to think that Charl might not have the best interests of the crew at heart.

This largely covers why Bollywood cricket movies can also work so well. I love watching Lagaan and how it turns a 5 day marathon in the middle of the desert into an epic battle for human rights.

I recently had an epiphany about baseball when it took over my comedy radio station for the season again, and i'm predicting this might line up. The reason baseball has been able to endure for such a long time is that it is so well suited to be communicated over the radio. The game has a very limited number of game states, players have set positions where they can be, so you can tell someone everything happening in a game of baseball with no visuals easily.

I read the notification as “why BASEketball is the best movie sport.” I couldn’t click fast enough. I thought finally it gets respect.

“There’s no crying in baseball!” That line never fails to make me laugh.

As a Brit who has never seen a baseball game in his life and has never grown up around Baseball and is not into any sport whatsoever, I absolutely adore Baseball movies and this captured why so well

Japanese manga also established something fascinating about baseball. They wanted to "capture the natural narrative weight of baseball, and set it to the aesthetic of the samurai films".

As my friend said when I asked him why men like Field of Dreams so much, “Field of Dreams isn’t about baseball; it’s about your dad.” Also, that Twilight baseball scene is very influential. My husband was in France when that movie came out, and some French people asked if they could join his baseball game because “it was like Twilight.” That movie is singlehandedly teaching French teenagers about baseball. 🤣

Fun fact, one of the first literary mentions of baseball is Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey! It's in the first chapter, discussing Katherine's hobbies which includes playing baseball with her siblings. Just thought it was interesting.
