From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia :
"Baseball is a team sport popular in North America , parts of Latin America, the Caribbean, and East Asia. The modern game was developed in the United States from an early bat-and-ball game called rounders. It is a bat-and-ball game in which a pitcher throws a hard, fist-sized ball past the hitting area of a batter. The batter attempts to hit the baseball with a tapered, smooth, cylindrical bat made of wood or metal."

[Quote] "Buck O'Neil, baseball's charismatic Negro Leagues ambassador who barnstormed with Satchel Paige and inexplicably fell one vote shy of the Hall of Fame, died Friday night. He was 94."
