How do you think the game would go if they switched to the following balls, 1 game with each type of ball:

A Wiffle Ball
A Tennis Ball
A Ping pong ball
A golf ball
A volleyball
A basketball
A football
A pool ball
A bowling ball

How would the game go? points to person who is most thoughtful and/or creative

well a wiffle ball would be very easy to hit out of the park. with a tennis ball every pitcher would get at least 10 homers a year. A ping pong ball would get caught by the wind so easily and ping pong balls are very hard to catch with a mit. a golf ball would be about the same mabee a little more strikeouts because of the size mabee a few more injuries. a volleyball would go no were and the d fence would definitely not were mits. with a basketball the ball again would go no where and the d fence would not were mits. a football would take too many weird bounces and the d fence would not were mits but mabee glove. with a pool ball there would just be way to many injuries and the ball would go mabee 2 feet. with a bowling ball the bats would break every pitch and the pitcher would not be able to make it across the plate without a bounce.

wiffle ball would be destroyed very quickly

tennis ball would flatten out, but still might go yard.

Ping pong ball would be crushed. If contact was even made.

golf ball might travel about 1000 feet if hit on the sweet spot.

volley ball easier to field...not hit for distance

basketball...pretty much like the volleyball

football would be all over the damn place

pool ball would be possible injuries to the players.

bowling ball would be definite injuries to the players

It wouldn't be baseball, but some strange doings. Do you stay awake nights thinking up these asinine questions?

How about a sponge ball ?
