	Baseball - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Baseball is a team sport in which a player on one team (the pitcher) attempts to throw a hard, fist-sized ball past a player on the other team (the batter), who attempts to hit the baseball with a tapered, smooth cylinder called a bat.
		Baseball is played between two teams of nine players each on a baseball field, usually under the authority of one or more officials, called umpires.
		Baseball history is full of heroes and goats—men who in the heat of the moment (the "clutch") distinguished themselves with a timely hit or catch, or an untimely strikeout or error.

	Current Biography Excerpts: Baseball
		Considered by most baseball authorities to be the best lead off batter in the game's history, Rickey Henderson of the Oakland A's possesses the four ideal traits of a number-one hitter--blazing speed, the ability to hit for both power and a high average, and a keen batting eye.

	The Baseball History (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		From the first recorded game in 1845, through the establishment of professional teams in the 1860s and leagues in the 1870s, the 19th century was baseball's formative period in which the basic rules and structures of the game gradually assumed the form we know today.
		In addition, baseball between the wars witnessed the advent of several trends that have stayed with us to the current day, including specialized relief pitching, minor-league farm systems, night games and radio broadcasts.
		Equally important in the game's chronology was the Dodgers' and rival New York Giants' move to the West Coast in 1958 as baseball grew beyond its eastern and midwestern roots.

		He posted another good year in 1959, but slumped with the lowly Cubs after a four-player deal sent him to the Windy City in May 1960.
		He was sent to the minors in 1963 and quit baseball soon after, frustrated by what he saw as a misguided strategy of padding the roster with over-the-hill stars rather than developing young talent.
