[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been watching my kid and others play baseball for about a decade now and geez it's just brutal. The individual moments of being up to bat in high pressure situations, umps with unpredicatable strike zones, fielding errors, injuries . . . 
All sports are challenging, but I wonder if baseball is the hardest to master the mental aspect. Which team sport do you think is the most challenging in terms of the mental aspect?[/quote]

Baseball and softball both require a tremendous amount of game IQ but I can’t really say for sure whether it’s more or less than other sports, merely different.[/quote]

Compared to fast-moving and more complex games like basketball, soccer, and hockey, the amount of game IQ required in baseball is nil. [/quote]

Basketball, soccer and hockey are not particularly complex.

Basketball is incredibly complex. I can see you've never played.[/quote]

Maybe for the coach but for the individual… you have 1 job, okay 2 offense and defense.[/quote]

It's incredibly complex, and the best players play the full game and are doing it dead tired late in the 4th quarter. [/quote]
