a cricket feild isnt nearly as large as a baseball field...ive been to both.
scoring runs
baseball : 1) u hit a ball out of the park 2) u run arnd all three bases (and the bases r pretty far apart)
cricket : 1) u hit a ball outside of the park, and it can roll outside as long as some1 doesnt catch it. (in baseball it cant drop once, it has to fly outta the park) or 2) u run back and forth between twho posts that rnt that spaced.
pitching/bowling
baseball: the pitcher stands in ONE spot (doesnt run and throw) and the avergae speed of a baseball is the highest thrown speed of a cricketball.
cricket: the bowler runs, twirls his arms and throws and not even at the speed of a baseball pitcher.
the only thing i can give credit to cricket is that they dont use gloves, just their bare hands.
and u prolly werent playing on a real baseball feild, were u now? of course if the bases are 1 foot apart, its gona b hella easy, but thats not how it is in baseball.

its good to hear tht u went to both fields.. but if u measure a baseball field n a cricket field.. i mean the lentgh n the width, or wanna measure the space, a cricket feild is way bigger than a baseball field.. wen u run bak n forth to make runs, u get tired.. so u have to good stamina.. swingin ur hand n throwin the ball takes up more enegery n more skills then just throw the ball like a bytch.. catchin the ball w/out gloves takes more skills than catchin the ball w/gloves.. holdin the bat down on the ground n then swing it to hit the ball takes more skills than just hold the bat up n hit the bullet..
in personality, cricket ppl has better personality than baseball player.. baseball player r just sum hyper shytis.. they go n fite the umpire wen eva they want.. get kicked out of the game n then cum bak next game.. in cricket.. its different.. if u disagree w/umpire's call, u may ask him nicely n kindly.. but if u misbehave, u will be thrown out of the game plus will be on suspension.. u cant curse at other players in cricket. in baseball, u can curse at ne bytch n mother fukers as much as u want n then get into a fite.. in cricket if u get into a fite or curse at ne players, ur out of the game.... cricket needs a lot of skills of playin.. so i dont think u shud argue w/me abt it.. cz i play both sports.. n i know.. but its true tht its kinda borin to watch the games...
i agree w/u snoop.. soccer needs lota stamina n skills.. n it is not a violent game either.. (unlike baseball)..o well..
