The two sports are comparable by the eye test but otherwise the different dynamics of the ball make it wildly different.
Pro baseball players would struggle more against a softball pitch because they don’t train for that. Same the other way around. Doing something you’re not used to inherently means you’re not going to be as good as something you train for. It doesn’t necessarily correlate with difficulty or skill levels.

Baseball doesn’t sub as many people in, as a rule.
Imagine they had subbed her in when up so much, would it then be viewed as a stunt because she’d have no real impact on the game?
Equity only works in some situations, she’s playing for equality and equality looks like riding the bench for a lot of the players. Good enough to sit on the bench but maybe not good enough for this game right here right now in this moment.
Even if it is virtue signaling … sometimes that’s necessary just to get the narrative moving.

I’m a fan of the spinny throw and try to spear the judge competitions.
And the stick jump.

Arizona gets snow too!
Last time I went to Arizona it was unseasonably cold, rained, and then snowed. Got to see the Grand Canyon covered in snow. Absolutely amazing.

Fashion is weird today.
When I was in school (90s) you would be made fun of incessantly for not wearing the cool clothes.
Now my son is in school and I’m trying to avoid that for him and everyone just wears crocs and sweatpants. It’s like the “I just rolled out of bed with a 103 fever and shit myself” aesthetic is the thing.

He’s just running to shore with the rope so it’s more of a game.
Also they need to shake off right next to the person filming.

Once upon a time out lawns were filled with clover and other pollinators and were actually fairly “good” for the local eco system.
Not so much any more :(

The forests in the USA are actually at some of their largest since the old growth was cut down.
For what it’s worth.
We destroy the grasslands for beef, not the forests, here in the USA.

We can get people to protect the rainforest without asking them to eat less beef.
Just… don’t tell them about the beef part.

The dog won’t fix loneliness.
But it will get you out of bed in the morning and get you out of the house for walks.
Loneliness is often exacerbated by the things loneliness brings on.

I’m not saying you’re wrong, I’m saying that the same story could be spun from both directions if that’s how people want to spin it.
