What do you think is better...softball or baseball?

Question

I totally think softball although baseball is good too!

Answer 1

Depends on what aspect and type of softball your referring to.

Slowpitch softball is alright, although it's pretty much a hitter's game and the most intriguing question is who's going to buy the beer aftewards.

Fastpitch softball is a fantastic game, particulary in regards to the different types of pitches. The only complaint I have, particularly once you get into the higher levels (women's college world series, for example), is that the games are so low scoring. You get to see the best pitchers dominate the best hitters, but a 1-0 game with 18 Ks by one pitcher is tough to swallow night after night. I also wish there were a few more extra base hits - it seems that if it's not a slap single, it's a HR. Plus I get confused with the switching rules of when a player can go and re-enter.

Baseball seems to be the more complex of the two, particularly when you look at the specialization in certain areas, particularly pitching. There seems to be a bit more going on throughout the game as far as strategy, but the same could be said for softball.

For fun, it's softball. For strategy and complexity, I'll take baseball.

Answer 2

Baseball because softball originated from it.

Baseball. Softball players are weaklings. They play with a bigger ball so they can catch it easier. And they pitch underhand and its not as fast as baseball.
