Sure you need good reaction skills to play baseball, but you haven't stepped on to the rugby field.
When you have ten feet seperating the you and your opponent. From the time of your teammate touching the ball, thats when your opponent starts running at you full tilt. So the ball still has to travel through the air, get to my hands and i have to make the desicion to pass, or to take it myself. So i have to calculate what is happening all around me.
A fat pitcher like david wells has to only worry about the runners and making sure he throws the ball as over the plate. Those players are born with those arms, and thats why you see players like Mark Macguire and David Wells being fat and lazy.
I respect both games of baseball and basketball, but i still think you need more skill and brains to play rugby.
