Round Ball, Round Bat is sports blogging meets mommy/daddy blogging, from the perspective of a Southern California family. It is a place for us to chronicle our love for baseball, and everything that comes along with that. RBRB is more than a blog though. Here you’ll find stadium reviews, analysis, editorial opinions, definitions of the game, and any other random baseball-related posts here. Our goal is not only share our love of the game but to help other families get the most out of their baseball experiences as well.
Everything you read here on RBRB will be family-friendly, and we’ll provide content that will be geared towards the lifelong baseball lover all the way to the brand-new fan. We believe that baseball is truly America’s Pastime, and also a fun resource for bringing the family together.
About The Name
Baseball is a game rich in history. There are libraries of statistics that chronicle the performance of the game’s past and current players. Stadiums and cities are filled with memories of great performances and unbelievable collapses. Players and teams have won the hearts of fans of all ages since the 1800’s. But at the heart of this great game is a very fundamental concept – hitting a round baseball with a round bat.
We chose Round Ball, Round Bat to express our love for the simplicity of the game. The crack of the bat is a sound that signifies the coming of spring and the hope of a new season. It can bring 50,000 people to their feet in an instant, only to vanish after the final out of the World Series in October.
The actual term refers to an old saying, “it’s a round ball and a round bat, and you got to hit it square.” Hitting a baseball is often referred to as the most difficult skill in all of sports.
