    A round ball used in the sport of baseball, the American pastime.

    Is baseball the only sport you can play while being out of shape?

    Racing would be tough to do if your were out of shape. It's very hard on a person's body to be put through those kinds of G-forces, heat, and physical endurance.

    ping pong...although apparently being fat negatively impacts your reaction time/reflexes so not too many pros are overweight, although I guess it's possible.

    Why do people keep saying racing. You have to be small like a jokey to race. Less weight the better.

    And Manny Ramirez. And I'm pretty sure you have to be in shape to be a pitcher. Especially a starter.

    Exactaly. Maybe useless American racing but your team wouldn't allow you to race in an F1 car if you had a heavy lunch.

    You can get away with being out of shape in a couple sports if you are good enough, but you will always be better if you are healthy.

    Nah, you can be a golfer or professional bowler and be outta shape.  In fact, it seems like any position in soccer, hockey, and basketball are the three main sports where you've gotta be in pretty damn good shape to play on any sort of consistent basis.
