Xtreme Baseball

A new kind of baseball has been introduced. It's called Xtreme Baseball, and it was invented by Phil Weidner. Watch the video preview below to learn more about it. I also included a diagram of what the field looks like.

We all saw what happened to the XFL...this will have the same fate, except nobody will even ever know it was attempted. Right now, only a few cities in Florida have a team. It is extreme. Extremely boring, extremely confusing for the average fan and NOT that extremely creative. Well, the field is, but it stops there.

If your going to try to create an Xtreme form of baseball give the fans everything they love about baseball, but to the "Xtreme" (pun intended). Let the players use corked bats for more homeruns, raise the pitchers mound and move it closer to the batter while your at it. Let players use all the pine tar they want and as far down the bat as they want. Heck, let them use metal bats! Make the fences 30 feet high. Cork the balls as well and make the seams so high the pitchers will be breaking off curve balls that drop 3 feet. That would be extreme baseball. This league they've got is just the same 'ole game with players 10 times worse.
