Blernsball is a very popular sport in the year 3000. It was reformed from baseball which was deemed too boring so it was spiced up. Leela became the first female to play in the professional leagues even though she was just there to please the Mets fans. Leela was so bad she replaced Hank Aaron XXIV as the worst Blernsball player ever.

Rules

• The ball is attached to the field by an elastic tether, though powerful hits have been known to break it a billboard just beyond the reach of the tether triggers an "automatic win," called a "grand slam blern," if the ball enters a small hole in the centre of a sign, and previous balls have been known to escape from Earth's atmosphere.
• It is like baseball, there is a pitcher who throws the ball for a player to hit the bat across the field to get a "home run".
• If enough balls go into a small hole in the center of the field third ball lock, a pinball-style Multiball is initiated. At this time dozens of balls are shot at high speeds into the field, causing frenetic action.
• Relief pitchers are conveyed from the bullpen to the pitcher's mound by means of a giant tarantula.
• Traditions of the game include aluminium bats and the 7th inning grope.
• Steroid injections are mandatory.
