and how can tennis be more skilled? you have a bigger surface area to hit a ball the same size :hs:
You don't have to chase a baseball down to hit it.

And take hockey, they play a long season of ~3-4 games a week, and get the snot beat out of them every time they're on the ice, risk serious injury, need great coordination, and have to be in incredible athletic shape to keep up.... AND they frequently play past 35 years old, even into their mid 40's.

All of those factor into tennis too.


And for the record, I'm not hating on you or baseball, I'm just saying the level of athleticism and ability required for baseball is way below that of other sports.
