    The following passage from the article gives one pause for reconsideration:

    "...competitive players who are looking for an edge go to great lengths to “damage” their balls in just the right way..."

          This thread brings back fond memory's of my youth. Every year we would keep track of the HR totals and played basically like this.
          A batted ball is assigned a value—single, double, etc.—based on where it lands on the field of play. Some number of “outfielders” try to catch the balls on the fly, and the ones that drop for hits advance whatever “runners” were already on base.
