The MET value of 5 for baseball is sourced from the Compendium of Physical Activities. The climate factor of 1.03 accounts for New York's average temperature of 49°F. Research shows that exercising in non-neutral temperatures increases energy expenditure as the body works to maintain its core temperature.
Baseball and softball combine short bursts of explosive activity with periods of lower intensity. Batting, throwing, fielding, and base running all require power, agility, and hand-eye coordination. While baseball is intermittent in nature, the explosive movements during play engage the entire body. Pitching and batting involve significant rotational forces through the core, and fielding develops reaction time and agility. The sport also provides valuable social and team-building benefits.
