Any thing to do with sports is my favorite hobby. I know a lot about every sport, and it is hard to choose my favorite. I would choose baseball and soccer to be my favorite sports because I play them. Baseball and soccer have many interesting facts. The oldest baseball park was built in 1912. Also, baseball fans eat enough hot dogs to stretch from Dodger stadium to Wrigley field (from Los Angeles to Chicago). Soccer also has many interesting facts such as a soccer field is called a “pitch” because every regulation field is pitched — or sloped — 5 degrees upwards from one end to the other. The teams switch sides after each half so each team has to play slightly uphill for half the match. Also, soccer balls are slightly oval-shaped. But the checkered board pattern creates an illusion of a perfect sphere. These are just some interesting facts about these points.
