The Dodgers: Worse than cursed

Actually, I disagree. Yes, basketball has more running and quick movements, but as for starting and stopping, baseball's the worst. To make a play, you're generally starting from a dead stop, either on the bases or in the field. And to make matters worse, you aren't involved in every play, so a player is often standing still for 5 or 10 minutes at a time, plus the significant ammount of downtime in the dugout. Baseball players are in the MOST danger of cooling off of just about any sport.
