If soccer is boring then why do people watch baseball?

Most of the time the ball is caught via pop flies etc. Isn't that similar to the "boring" action with soccer? Still, baseball has a huge following and it was the US pastime for a long time until too many damned strikes by baseball millionaires and the rise of the Xbox/PS3 fucked its shit up a bit.

I don't think "boredom" is the real reason why football/soccer didn't take off in the US. Must be something else.
