Many of my guests come from overseas and one of the things I love to do with them is to go to a Nationals game. But have you ever tried to explain baseball to someone who has never grown up with it? “The ball he just threw was a ball. If he would have swung and missed it would be a strike unless it was a good pitch and didn’t swing then it would be a ball. Got it?” I can imagine how the English feel explaining cricket. Below a visitor from Egypt catches a home run hit by the ethically challenged Houston Astros.
