Most people i know say that baseball players chew tobacco or something like that, but as a baseball player myself i think its not true because if they do they would come out positive in the drug tests. When i play i ither chew gum or eat flower seeds, but i keep away from tobacco. The MLB does not test for tobacco....it's legal and non-performance enhancing.
In the old days, baseball players primarily chewed tobacco and it became a bit of a tradition to chew and spit on field. Chewing tobacco has gone out of style, however many ball players chew gum and spitting is still an acceptable tradition.

Tobacco is bad for you because, whether you smoke cigarettes, or chew tobacco, you are still putting toxic chemicals into your body that can definitely give you cancer, but also potentially kill you.
