Watching sports was always a big part of my drinking routine, and baseball is the sport I'd watch most while drinking.
The thing about baseball is that there is a game literally every night for six months straight. My team plays 5 or 6 nights a week, but even when they are off there is another game to watch. It's less of a celebratory drinking situation like the World Cup, and of a daily routine which flows so well with being an everyday drinker.
I quit drinking in the off season in January of this year. One of the things I worried about was losing baseball, night after night with beers. I was sure there was no way I could even watch it without drinking.
As the season started this year in April, I pretty quickly figured out that baseball, like everything else, is just as enjoyable sober as it is drunk. It's a new routine, drinking tea or soda instead, but I really don't miss alcohol a bit during games. Plus I can remember how the games end!
