Softball!

In 2020, YouTube detected that I was watching a crap ton of baseball and decided to do something about it...

... By "spamming" my feed with Florida Gators games until I finally clicked on one and became instantly hooked with the sport.

I'm not gonna lie: it's actually surprisingly enjoyable and I still tune in to games I'm aware of if they post them to YouTube — it has all the intensity of a good MLB game, but with none of the slowdown!

There's really nothing quite like witnessing a Kelly Barnhill start to make you think "woah, where this has been my entire life?".

Definitely recommend checking it out!

Do you have any experience with the sport, either as a player or spectator?

I had a friend growing up that we used to teach ourselves how to pitch. We would try curves and knuckleball, but we didn't have an baseball' ball so we used tennis balls, plastic balls, anything ball haha. So one day my family, randomly, out of nowhere, got one official softball' ball (english not my first language, do i sound right? Feels wrong for me) and we would watch Youtube videos learning how to pitch, with the windmill and everything. The shoulders get tired really fast and thats the only experience i have with softball xD

We usually just say "softball" to refer to the ball used to play the sport it's named after, but English is not my first language, either (and I understood you perfectly anyway) ^^!

And cool! I used to play with tennis balls, too! It wasn't until my twenties that I managed to get some proper gear (:
