Baseball Informative Speech

Do you think baseball is athletic? Do you know why its athletic? Well if you believe it's not I will give you various reasons why it is athletic. Personally I believe its athletic but, before I talk about why its athletic let me talk about a little bit of its history. The man who created the sport is Abnir Doubleday.
