It’s a sport from abroad. And one that takes place in the niche. But the TV Cannstatt baseball players are not frightened by the dominance of football and even build a new stadium. One with the most beautiful view of Stuttgart.
Let’s say it right at the beginning, the bad word: fringe sport. Yes, baseball is not only imported from the USA, it is a marginal sport in this country. But actually in Germany all sport apart from men’s football is a fringe sport. But Stuttgart in particular has had good experiences with these niches such as athletics, gymnastics, cycling and table tennis, since the fame of the sports city was based on title fights in these sports.
