Analysis of America's Pastime



America's pastime baseball has been played

by many people. Yogi Berra, George

Herman "Babe" Ruth, Roger Marris, Bobby

Bonds, Henry Aaron, and Mickey Mantle just

to nname a few. But do you ask yourself what

has changed in our pastime? What happened to

the $.05 Bleachers? Why Don't they still

play all day games?
