Baseball

John Rawls on why baseball is the best game.

He makes a few good points and the tension in a big time playoff or World Series game is something to behold.  One thing that baseball does not possess, however, that football, soccer, and basketball all have is the synching up of movement and passes and teamwork that really elevates the watching experience. Teammates work in conjunction with one another in the other sports, whereas, for the most part, baseball is a sport of individual plays.  Yes, there is some throwing to each other involved and moving runners over, etc, but that pales in the comparison to the passing or team defense in basketball and soccer and the obvious synched up nature of football plays.
