Editors Note: Baseball is an American sport, and heckling is arguably an American tradition. Oddly, the origins of the game have been traced to the English games of Rounders and Cricket - two sports that attract extremely sedate spectators. Even Japanese baseball fans, who chant and sing throughout the game, do not heckle. Have you wondered why not? This page has translated some favorite American baseball heckles into Japanese, Portugese, Italian, Korean, and a few others and then back again. The results may explain why heckling only works in english. ; ) Do some yourself through Babelfish and send them in!
