Baseball is one of the most unpredictable sports to watch.

No matter how good a team is, anything can happen during a game. An underrated team can beat one of the best, and a single play can completely change the score. Sometimes a player who rarely hits well becomes the hero, while a star player might make a big mistake and appear foolish for being paid too much for such a performance.

Weather, luck, and pressure all play a role in how a game turns out. Coaches and players can plan and practice, but they can never control every moment. In a recent interview with Liam McGuire, a baseball player at our school,  he reflected, “ It’s great because of how one swing can change the trajectory of the game.” That’s what makes baseball so exciting, it’s never the same twice. Fans keep watching because every game is full of surprises. You never know when you’ll see an amazing catch, a walk-off home run, or an unexpected comeback. The unpredictability of baseball is what keeps people loving it generation after generation.
