The Next Generation Of Blind Baseball Excitement


You might remember, back in the day, our dissertation on blind baseball. Well, they're playing a new version in Italy now, and it seems to make a little more sense. Instead of beeping, they simply hold onto the ball when they swing. This might cause a blind man to lose a finger — which, now that we think about it, would likely make it more difficult to read — but hey, when you're dealing with the beauty that is the world of baseball, sacrifices must be made.
