NFL is great!

When playing baseball as a kid, I remember the person at bat would stay at the plate if they don't get a hit.
Within a few seconds the pitcher was ready again.

However the pros take too long.
Notice when the batter doesn't get a hit he does the following:

- walks 10 feet from the plate.
- spits twice.
- fiddles with his hat.
- tapes his shoes a few times.
- spits again & scratches his crotch.
- returns to the plate & adjusts his little batter glove.
- swings the bat over the plate 11 times.
Finally he is ready to get to business, when the pitcher turns around to scare a guy leading off & the batter goes through the insane ritual again.

Why do they do that shit?
Whenever I see/play baseball in real life, no one does that crap after each pitch.
It really wastes a ton of time.
Baseball can be fun, but I hate seeing the game delayed after each pitch.
Is there any reason a batter needs to move like that?
