Summary

Baseball is too slow, the games take too long, and its popularity is in decline. Entrepreneur Jesse Cole doesn't want to see America's pastime left in the past, so he created an updated, faster-paced version of baseball called Banana Ball. And the fans have responded. With the pledge to always put fans first, Jesse is changing the way we look at baseball, and sold-out stadium tours show that it is working. Baseball purists may not like it, but Banana Ball may be what keeps America's pastime in the present.
