Who invented baseball?
[Edit]

Answer

Romania invented the godfather of baseball. It's called "oina" and it was invented in 1364 during the rule of Vlaicu Voda. Originally, the game was playes by shepherds.
The rules are similar with baseball....there are two teams, one that is "at bat" and one that is "at catching". The game begins with the team "at bat", with one of the players throwing the ball while another player of the same team has to hit it with a wooden bat and send it as far as he can towards the adversary field. After that, the player has to run the "back-and-forth lanes" that are to be found in the adversary field before the adversary receives the ball from his co-players.
Oina uses the same weight of the ball (around 140 grams for both), the bat si longer and slimmer comparing with baseball, the game lasts only 30 minutes and oina uses 11 players comparing with baseball that has 9.

Oina is the romanian national sport.
