Olympic Baseball
This will be the final summer Olympics in which baseball will be an official medal sport, unless it is reinstated by a vote sometime in the future.
Baseball has a long history as an exhibition/demonstration sport at the summer Olympics, and was granted official medal status for the 1992 summer Olympics in Barcelona. But in 2005, baseball and softball were both voted out of the summer Olympics starting in 2012 - only the second time a sport has been eliminated since Polo was voted out in 1936.
There have only been 4 medals awarded in baseball, and although 17 different nations have appeared in Olympic baseball competition, 3 of those nations (Cuba, Italy and Japan) have appeared in all 4 medal rounds of the competition.
Olympic baseball is nearly identical to professional baseball, except that there's a mercy rule if a team is winning by 10 or more runs after 7 innings (6.5 if the home team is winning).
