The Need

IMAGINE A WORLD WITHOUT BASEBALL

No ducks on the pond, backwards K’s, 5-tool players or walk-off winners...

No seeing-eye-singles, ground-ruled doubles, stand-up triples, or 3-run dingers...

No 7th-inning stretch, cracker jacks, long relievers or nasty 2 seamers...

The smell of the grass, the roar of the crowd, the crack of the bat, the sounds of the game…

Absent.

no childhood dreams of...

“bottom of the 9th, 2 out, bases loaded, down by 3, here’s the 0-2 pitch...” “FLY BALL hit hard, deep left field... back back back... it’s gone!!”

No flashing leather, back door sliders, hot dogs and beer, Topps, Donruss, or Fleer.

BASEBALL has left an indelible mark on American culture

Baseball has molded so many of us for generations.

At the ballpark we learned character, perseverance, adversity and sportsmanship, teamwork, trust, competition and determination

the crushing defeats...
           marked us
the walk off wins...
           marked us
the bus rides home...
           marked us
and the ’88 World Series...
             marked us

WE CAN'T UNDO BASEBALL

It’s been here and it’s here to stay…

But what if we could take it where it has not been?  

We, THE BASEBALL NATION, can go build it, nourish it, develop it and watch it take root in a culture and transform a nation the way it has transformed ours…

Imagine the possibilities…

America’s Pastime…
         Malaysia’s Future…
         Cambodia’s Future…
         Thailand’s Future…
         Indonesia’s Future…
