Baseball and Basketball Fun Facts
May 9th 2006 04:39
Well, I've never written a sports fun fact, so here is a basketball and baseball fun fact page.
Basketball facts:
Basketball was created by Dr. James Naismith, who was a Canadian and was meant to keep his students occupied. A very successful thing for one man to just create like that.
This second fact isn't really about basketballs, but it is related. Apparently a ripe cranberry can be dribbled like a basketball.
Baseball facts:
Babe Ruth, the legendary baseball player was left handed, but used to play right handed in school because they didn’t have any left handed gloves. This explains the statue of Babe Ruth at Camden Yards.
Cal Hubbard is the only member of both the baseball and football halls of fame.
Well, hope you enjoy the facts for today,
Adam
