Baseball is harder to play then tennis!

since this is my last round and i cant bring any new ideas I will just argue my opponent’s statements in his 4th round. I hope my opponent will do the same. Now my opponent said that there where no replays in tennis he is sadly mistaken. “It was nearing 1 a.m. New York time on Sept. 7, 2001, when the first tremors of a substantial tennis meltdown shook the U.S. Open. Fiery American newcomer Andy Roddick and his 20-year-old Aussie rival Lleyton Hewitt were in the fifth set of their quarterfinal matchup, and the pair had been trading groundstroke after punishing, sweaty groundstroke for more than three and a half hours. But suddenly, when Roddick was serving at 4-5, fate and optical illusion teamed up to do a mean, baffling thing to the teenage home-country hero. A powerful cross-court forehand by Roddick just kissed the alley line furthest from the chair umpire, a neat trick that would move Roddick one point closer to the semifinal. Or, at least, that's what the linesman (and Andy Roddick) thought. Chair umpire Jorge Dias, from atop his perch on the other side of the court, saw something different. He overruled the line judge's call and awarded the point to Hewitt, sending Roddick into a tailspin of white-hot rage. Afterward, TV replays would show that the ball might have actually landed in. But five points later, a still-bewildered Roddick congratulated Hewitt on his victory and then trudged bitterly out of Arthur Ashe stadium. Fast-forward 11 years to the last match of Roddick's career—a fourth-round U.S. Open match against Juan Martin del Potro, just this Wednesday night. Early in the fourth set,Del Potro unleashed a monstrous first serve at 40-15. A line judge shouted that the serve was wide. Chair umpire Carlos Bernardes overruled, calling the serve an ace. Roddick disagreed. But instead of scoffing, or scowling, or hurling a racket, the American simply raised his right hand. "Mr. Roddick is challenging the call," said the loudspeaker. Both panting players turned toward the stadium's JumboTron to watch a neon yellow orb travel across the screen, finishing its journey just wide of a thick white stripe. The word "OUT" appeared. Roddick was right: The serve had been long.” http://www.theatlantic.com... So therefore I win that argument. He also used Wikipedia as a source which would also make his argument invalid. Here are the sources you want for the numbers. 60 yard dash http://speedendurance.com... Distance from 3rd to 1st. http://www.chacha.com... Bat speed http://www.chacha.com... “You can't catch a ball in tennis because it isn't part of the rules. You also can't catch a ball in hockey, or soccer, or boxing, does that automatically make baseball harder?” You are sadly mistaken again. In soccer the goalie can catch the ball, in hockey you can catch the puck, and in boxing you don’t even play with balls so why bring it into the argument. Hockey source http://voices.yahoo.com... “Back to the sport of tennis where I have barely even made any arguments, just countered your baffling ones. Tennis has many facets to the game, serving, returning, volleying, drop shots, placement and endurance to name a few. Games of tennis can last as long as 4-5 hours at a time constantly running back and forth. All tennis players are in top physical shape which you cannot say about all baseball players. (Manny Ramirez is the perfect example here.) You mention baseball players tracking down balls and making a catch, well tennis players do the same exact thing numerous times during one rally. They don't do it once then stand for the next hour or play, they hit the ball and run, hit and run, the duration of the match. I really can't stress the amount of footwork, endurance and hand eye coordination needed to play tennis.” Now this is his only valid argument and in the past debates I had contradicted what he had said so thank you for the debate. I enjoyed it. People please vote PRO. By reading the debate you can see that the PRO has proved that baseball his harder to play.
