How is Baseball Like Trial?

I am in New York right now helping a person accused in a federal drug case that's pending in the Southern District of New York (in Manhattan); last night I got to watch the Yankees play the Mets at Shea Stadium (which isn't going to be around much longer -- they're building the new park next door). As a lover of metaphor, I feel that any worthwhile human endeavor bears similarities to every other, but I guess I don't know enough about baseball to say how baseball is like trial (and Google provided absolutely no help). Any thoughts?
