A lacrosse ball is very different from a baseball. It is heavier and more bouncy. A baseball is light and stings when you get hit, a lacrosse ball is more of a thud since it is heavier. A lacrosse ball is not harder than a baseball, but it does hurt more when you get hit by one.
Baseball is boring as it is. its pretty easy to play. Soccer is extremely hard and takes time to learn. But lacrosse is the most physical game in the us. It was used by indians to prepare men for war. based on the facts lacrosse is definitely harder than base ball but is a tiny bit harder than soccer.

NO
Its not that they hate baseball or football players. Its that lacrosse players feel they and their sport get no respect. Or that all lacrosse players are rich little white boys.
Lacrosse
the perks of pinching a lacrosse head is that its easier to control the ball... it makes it harder for the defense to get it out... so basically it keeps the ball in your stick with little effort.
the same size as a lacrosse ball
