Baseball fields are fan-shaped with uneven outfield walls so they could fit into a street corner.

Doubleday was at West Point, not Cooperstown, when he supposedly invented baseball. He didn't know a baseball from a kumquat.

The man who should REALLY be credited more with inventing the sport is Alexander Joy Cartwright--and even then, baseball has no singular point of origin like basketball does.

81 games on the road? Baseball seasons used to be as short as 30 games, and for decades were 154 games.

Roger Maris had an asterisk on his home run record for 30 years because the season had been extended to 162 when he set it.

Next I bet he's going to call pinball machines' fan layout Masonic (Attack From Mars, Medieval Madness) because fan-shaped.

Simple things are not complicated.
