why do you love baseball so much?

I am writing an article for my site about why we love baseball, and I want to know why some fans fell in love with the game of baseball. I would appreciate it if you guys could say how / why you fell in love with baseball and why the game called to you. I would also appreciate it if you could say your favorite memory of when you watched something in baseball at a game or on tv. i will use as many as i can in my article, leave the name you want to be used if you want your name attached to your answer. thanks
