These three teams are highly agressive in converting base hits into runs. It is fast paced, exciting and fun to watch. Much more than waiting for some steroid pumped ogre to hit the ball four hundred yards and win the game.

It's fun to watch that type of game, you know, baseball.   Last year I was watching a Twins game where with the bases loaded the batter signaled to the base runners to ignore the coaches signals  and to run regardless of the play.  With two outs the batter actually bunted . . . :o  It was such a shock that the pitcher, catcher and third baseman all seemed to actually freeze for a moment and that was enough to beat them (and it was a great bunt).  The crowd went nuts.

I miss real baseball watching the MLB.  It’s sad that you get teams like the White Sox praised for playing small ball . . . because they suddenly can play defense as if that’s all there is to it. :P
