Outline of the Broadcast:
Let??s review a baseball field, a diamond. Imagine there is a picture of a baseball field to show you where the pitcher is, and the catcher, the first, second, third baseman, the batter, the umpire, the outfielders and the short stopper. Wow, I think the pitcher will catch the eyes of the audience and if I could, I would play the pitcher. How about you??which position will you choose??…Tell me?? on the air????? Thanks Jerry and Mark. Now I know better about a baseball game. I am going to watch a baseball game this weekend. If I can, I??ll play in a game with my sister and brother. No, my brother is too young to play with me??My mom will say I should study harder??…I do need do some exercise, I don??t want to be a dull girl??Hey, let me ask you a question: if the pitcher gives the batter a bad ball, the batter still hits the ball, why? Let me tell you. Two reasons: one, the ball is too fast; second, the pitcher gives a curve and tricky ball ??Hey, last question: which animal is associated with the baseball game? Ya, a bat. You make a good guess. Hope you have a good dream, bye. If you like today??s program, please call in and let me know. You can either leave your message on our discussion board or just call in??and let me know you love my program. Stay tune. Bye.

In fact,my favorite sport is? baseball,because it is a sport stand for Taiwan.\r\nIf I will play a baseball game,I am willing to be a coach.\r\nBecause?I can order my teammates to do anything.\r\nIwill be a big star?in our baseball team.30618
Actually I am not familiar with baseball.\r\nI just know there are many catchers which have their different terms, one pitcher and four bases.\r\nIf I can choose a position in a baseball game, I??d like to be a pitcher, in my opinion, the pitcher is the sole rule in the whole baseball team.\r\nIf I am a great pitcher, I enable to let the other team??s batters lose points and defeat them.\r\nMaybe in this way to imagine I??m the best pitcher will encourage my enthusiasm to baseball???a fantastic team work game.30621
I don’t watch baseball game because I don’t have passion to it at all. To tell the truth,I don’t realize the rules that baseball has.Though I don’t know any other sport games’ rules,too. So it is a pity that I can’t tell you which position I want to stay in a baseball team. And that’s all.\r\n\r\n[audio:http://www.ttsh.tp.edu.tw/englishsound/english_learning.mp3%5D
I am not interested in baseball.\r\nI seldom watch anything about baseball game.\r\nI don’t understand the rules.\r\nI have read some comic books about baseball.\r\nIt’s just amusement.
My favorite is not baseball. But now in Taiwan everyone are crazy about it. If ask me which position do i choose. I think I must be a batter.Why? When I have base hit or home run, it’s so exciting!
Although I am not fimiliar with baseball.But if I have a chance to join to a baseball game,I want to be a pichter. I thought it was a amazing job beacuse I can tose many special ball to batter.I consider I will enjoiy this game one day .30610
In fact,I don’t like the baseball very much.If I had an opportunity to play the game,I world like to be a catcher.All I shuld do is catch the ball without running allover the field.
Baseball for me is a pretty difficult sport. But I still like to watch the live show during my leisure time, though I like basketball the most. Actually, I like to watch every sport game on TV rather than play games in person. The only exercise I accept to do is jogging which I am good at. I sometimes jog with my father on Sundays that I can enjoy the fresh air in the roads and clean my head!
I used to be a player in our baseball team in school. I was a catcher in my team but I wasn’t play for long. I regard the game is abstrusely and interesting because it has been played for a iong time and historied. The best player in my mind is Wang, even he had been feld for few times. I think it is a hotsy-totsy excercise, we should learn how to play.30629
I enjoin watching baseball games on TV. I always watch baseball with my father. In fact I want to be a manager, it is cool. I can control many people in baseball field. It is a glory part in baseball game. I am proud of baseball team in Taiwan.30616
If I can choose a position in a baseball team, I’d like to be a pitcher, because pitchers are able to catch the most attentions during the whole game. Besides, they always attract more fans compares to other teammates. Furthermore, to strike the batters with my fascinating skills is definitely a great filling.30627
I don’t have a particular favor in any sport , but actually jogging often bothers me . I feel that I almost faint after jogging a circle around the playground . It?requires lots of patience and better not to talk with someone from being too tired , so I think jogging is a dreary sport .
Baseball is light of Taiwan.I would like to play the umpire,because actually I don’t know how to play baseball.No matter how I’d like baseball.I thought I needed some exercise for myself good.30623
If I can play a role on the baseball field , I want to be a audience.\r\nI don’t really understand this sports . But I like the feel of whoops witheverybody. So I can enjoy the wonderful time with like-minded friends and cheer for glamorous athletes. I think I can choose a leisured weekend for a\r\nappealing game. 30609
Baseball is just my favorite sport. As far as I am concernrd, I would like to be a powerful batter. Because when my team trail, I am able to change the situation by myself. In other words, I can dominate the game.
My favorite sport is basketball.But I like baseball ,too.\r\nI like to be a batter ,because I like Homerun very much!\r\nHowever,be a batter is very differcult.Because the ball is too fast to hit!Oh,by the way, my favorite baseball player is Tiger Wang!!
I love baseball game very much.I evermore enjoy watching games on TV or in baseball field. If I would be a player ,I were like to play the catcher. Because a catcher could dispense what kinds of ball that the pitcher hurl.I think that it is very cool to control the temple of the ball game.30614
I have been fascinated with baseball since I was in the first grade of senior high school. I hope that I can be a pitcher, because the pitcher is the leader of the whole game.And that is the key player which determined that the winner or loser of the game.30633
Wow, baseball is a great team sport. I like baseball exercise, because it let me feel happiness with other players. And the shortcoming that is also spend a lot of time in a game. If I am a baseball player, I want to play pitcher, because it looks so imposing.30635
I don’t like baseball. But I sometimes go to swim. No matter it’s a sun day or not.\r\nIn water, I wander that I am a fish which swimming comfortably. Moreover, swimming is the only exercise which don’t feel uncomfortable.
I like to play baseball, because it is a popular sport in Taiwan. In fact I seldom play it. However I feel hilarious when I see the baseball game. If I can play it I want to be a hitter, because it is the most important and fantastic role in the team. And if I hit a home run, I just like a hero.
In a baseball game, I’d to be the catcher. I will do my best to control the condition. I will show my congenialty with the pitcher. And we will strikeout every hitter. If, unfortunately, the batter hits the base fit, I will make a last-ditch defense to hold the scords. I think playing baseball will be fun.30615
More and more people enrapture this sport in taiwan,and I am no exception. \r\nIf I am a baseball player,I wish I am a pitcher.\r\nWhen I stand on the pitcher’s mound.\r\nAll the dedans cheer at me.\r\nHoping me strikeout the other team’s player.\r\nWhat a fantastic sport.
My favorite sport is swimming.I think baseball is too dangerous to play for me. And the baseball rules is so complexity,I can’t understand what the player were doing.Despite when I watch the baseball game I still felt very aquiver!
If you ask me what my favorite sport, I will tell you ??baseball?? I would to play the pitcher. Why, because it is the astral man of the game. If our team without the good pitcher, we will be lost many mark in the game. Moreover the pitcher looks so commanding.
I don’t like baseball. But I sometimes go to swim. No matter it’s a sun day or not.\r\nIn water, I wander that I am a fish which swimming comfortably. Moreover, swimming is the only exercise which don’t feel uncomfortable.30613

THANK YOU 30610.You comment is so excellent.I have learned a lot from it.
When it comes to baseball , lots of Taiwanese always feel excited . But for me , I just feel confused whevever I hear the special terms like bunt , mitt , triple…etc. If I am a member of the baseball team , I want to be a excellent batter and hit a home run in each game .I convince that I will be the most success person in the baseball field at that moment . 30605
But I still like to watch the live show during my leisure time, though I like basketball the most.If I can choose a position in a baseball game, I would like to be a hitter.In my opinion, the hitter is the hero of the team. If I can help the team to win the game that is perfect. I will realize the dream in one day.30631
In fact,I don’t know anything about baseball game,because I think it is extremely complex.And you may think I’m so awkward to baseball game.But it’s okey to me. Actually my favorite game is soccer.I look forward the soccer world game.30618
Thank you 30628. Your comment is so great.I have learned many new words. What’s them mean? Please tall me, thanks alot.
I am not interest in professional baseball very much. But I love to watch baseball games on TV when there are world cup or other national baseball games. That always let me excited. I like to see our team win the game. I think it is true that Taiwanese love to see baseball games, because we only can win the other teams in the world by this way.\r\nAnd what position do I like? I won??t choose pitcher, because he absorb too more tension .I guess I??ll choose fielder. It??s cool to catch the fly ball.
In fact,I am not familiar baseball well,but I often be a couch potato,watching baseball game.My sister always ask me to watch TV,rooting for her favorit team,Sinan.I think I will go to baseball field to watch games someday. 30612
I would like to play the 1st baseman. I think that is a very important place, because I have to check the ??steal??and ??safe??by our competitors. But I can not walk somebody on the base. 30622
You choose the same character with me. Nice to meet you!
My favorite sport is basketball, not baseball,\r\nbut I still pride in the baseball team that represented our country.\r\nIf I can choose a position of a baseball team,\r\nI will serve the post of outfielder\r\nso that I can take a rest in the most of game time.\r\n30617
