Because only the Americans play baseball or softball
Its played competitively in about 4 countries only.
Really??? maybe cause the Poms prefer, Cricket, Rugby!!! , i know Soccer will be there tho.
Lack of Europeans and International interest.
Who knows… Maybe all the games they play and time it takes just to hand out 6 medals? Most of the world isn’t interested. Even Americans (who should be crazy about baseball) generally aren’t even interested in Olympic baseball because the MLB is going on (and starting to heat up) at the same time. So not even most Americans really care. I doubt that even 10% of the people you ask from this country would know even 1 player on our baseball team.
Still I understand what you are saying. It’s hard to imagine a ‘parlor game’ like ping-pong actually adding more competitions types and medals as a real sport like baseball and softball are pushed out. I’m just waiting for the addition of ‘bean-bag-toss’ I’m quite good at it I think I could medal.
I don’t know why but that *****.Baseball Softball should be main stay sports of the Olympics.
Sports that should be eliminated are Beach Volleyball,Table Tennis,Syncronize Swimming,Equestrian,Water Polo and how the hell does BMX Racing get into the Olympics,does the IOC think this is X Games ?.
