How climate change and physics affect baseball, America's favorite pastime : Short Wave
Briefly

When we think about baseball, we naturally think about physics. It's a simple projectile motion, which means when the batter hits the ball, it acts like a projectile… And the key is how much energy it has when it leaves the bat.
There's a lot of complexity when it comes to climate change and baseball. This could mean hotter outfield conditions, problems with heatstroke, or in some cases, even having the game be too unenjoyable because of the temperature.
