Counterpoint, baseball is boring as fuck to watch and sucks
Once you get into the pitching, baseball is at least as suspenseful as football from a play-by-play perspective. I'll agree that extra-innings can get kinda rough. But, especially with the intro of the pitch clock, its pretty well paced and compelling.
As someone who was a baseball fan as a child but haven't watched in years, I caught baseball fever again while witnessing Ohtani's record breaking performance this past June. That was history in the making and he singlehandedly redeemed the sport.
