Baseball

The 1920s represented a beautiful time in American baseball history, with beautiful, large stadiums being built across the country that fans flocked to. These include: the now defunct Cubs Park for the Chicago Cubs built in 1920, Sportsman's Park for the St. Louis Cardinals in 1920, and the first version of Yankee Stadium for the New York Yankees in 1923. Other ballparks were built, as well, but these represent the Major League Baseball parks built in the 1920s.

in 1916 a independent Negro League team from Baltimore was known as the Black Sox.

In 1919, the Chicago White Sox, who were heavily favored to win the World Series that year, surprisingly lost to the Cincinnati Reds. The following year, it was discovered that 8 members of the White Sox had worked with gamblers and planned to throw the series. The 8 players were actually acquitted of their charges in a court of law. However, Those 8 players, Eddie Cicotte, Oscar Felsch, Chick Gandil, Joe Jackson, Fred McMullin, Charles Risberg, George Weaver, and Claude Williams were banned from Major League Baseball for life due to the speculation of their involvement. So, because of the scandal, people nick-named the 1919 White Sox the 'Black Sox'.

Although many believe the Black Sox name to be related to the dark and corrupt nature of the conspiracy, the term "Black Sox" may already have existed before the alleged fix. There is a story that the name "Black Sox" derived from parsimonious owner Charles Comiskey's refusal to pay for the players' uniforms to be laundered, instead insisting that the players themselves pay for the cleaning. As the story goes, the players refused and subsequent games saw the White Sox play in progressively filthier uniforms as dust, sweat and grime collected on the white, woolen uniforms until they took on a much darker shade. It was this treatment of the players by Comiskey that helped fuel the Scandal.

A golf ball would bounce far higher than a baseball. This is because a golf ball has been specifically designed to harness the energy it receives and get the most from it. Imagine how far a golf ball would go if you hit it with a baseball bat- pretty far, and how far a baseball would go if you hit it with a golf club-virtually no where.

It depends on your skill and what you are good at doing i think on of the hardest positions are catcher and pitcher but that's my opiniond it can vary from person to person but i would say that the best position would have to be anything in the infield but the best would have to be 2nd or 3rd i would say 2nd though.

From home to first, first to second, etc.. the distance between bases is 90 feet. All the way around is 360 feet.

But if you're asking what the distance is around a whole baseball field, each field is different. Some have much bigger fields than others. The only thing that is the same is the infield.
