American Baseball - what's it all about ?

[joninliverton]

After I finished work at 6pm this evening, I went for a beer to what I thought was a gay friendly pub. Unfortunately, the gay guys that were running it had themselves done a runner and have been replaced with a straight couple. So I bought a beer and a bowl of chips and sat down and watched the pub TV. They had the sports channel on and to my surprise there was American Baseball on it. Well I havn't got a clue how the game is played or how scores are made, how people get out - the only thing I know is how they score a home run.

I watched the game for about 30 mins whilst I finished off my chips and a beer and tbh, still didnt have a clue wtf was going on. This is the game that was on the TV

Rookie Kyle Hendricks fired seven stellar frames, while Anthony Rizzo and Javier Baez launched homers to help the Cubs split the four-game set at Citi Field. Carlos Torres logged five shutout innings in a spot start, while Lucas Duda belted his 22nd homer for the Mets.

I'm not a baseball fan... to me it's boring! But can you explain cricket to me? I've watched it a couple of times and it's makes no sense! LOL

The people who claim to understand cricket don't Have much of a clue about the rules actually. The matches go on for 4 straight days. And if you're having beer watching it that's an awful lot of liver damage. I'll stick to a 2 hour tennis match I think

Cricket is ok but not if you have piles, as the cold concrete floors do havoc with them lol. Tennis is boring shit and the constant head moving from left to right makes me bilious - I hate friggin Wimbledon.

Okay, two things: First, and I really hate asking questions like this so don't bust my (nonexistent) balls too much for this but what exactly does "done a runner" mean? They went out of business? They skipped town? Are they on the run from law enforcement?
And two: baseball is a really complicated game that's difficult to explain so here:

One night when they shut the pub, they took all the money out of the till and the gambling machines and disappeared.

PM Land chat would bore the socks off you Johnny. All of a sudden a wedding doesn't seem like such a great idea. Feels like we're in the 30th year of marriage, the sex has stopped, we're in separate beds because of mutual snoring and we've joined a golf club!

Haha x
