There are so many written and unwritten rules around baseball that sometimes people in the sport tend to take things a little too seriously.
That's not a problem for new Yokohama BayStars outfielder Nyjer Morgan, who has the utmost respect for his craft, but is careful to remember that baseball is a game, and games are supposed to be fun.
"It's all from when I was a kid," Morgan said recently. "When they said go out there, it's a game. I never forgot that it's still a game, and you gotta have fun. Even though I know it's our job and our career, but it always goes back to when I was playing in little league and just going out there and having fun."
