Why must baseball players spit all the time?

We're talking professional players and in public here. IMO, it should not even be allowed during game play. If it is because being nervous or that matter, how come in other sports such as basketball, players don't?

These players should be role-models for kids to look up to. My 2 cent.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
