Is slow pitch softball a SPORT or GAME?

0...both....thanks, ken

I would venture to say that because Fast Pitch Softball and Baseball are played in High Schools, Colleges and appeared in the Olympics, that they are recognized as sports. Leaving Slow Pitch Softball to be considered a game.

Been to several pro events...Most are called ballgames..."Take me out to the ballsport"....Just doesn't have the same ring to it..:-o)

guys...to clarify "both"....overall a sport...but you go to watch a game....thanks, ken
