That's what I was thinking, seems like the most obvious pick.

Pretty much clicked on the article to confirm Samurai Champloo. I'm a bit perplexed

I was really hoping to see episode 13 of Cromartie High School on the list. Though to be fair they spend half the episode talking about baseball rules and most of the second half is them being lost in the woods, with very little actual baseball being played.

I would add Sora wo Kakeru Shoujo episode 9 to this list as well. One of the best filler episodes I have ever seen.

I remember the crazy baseball game from Galactic Pirates. The cat playing was troublesome enough but then the spaceship flying overhead insisted on playing...

Add me to the perplexed by lack of Champloo. Jin's death was so great. "I am ashamed." 
I was also expecting to see the baseball tournament of episode 25 of Osomatsu-san, in which Jyushimatsu somehow manages a 4-6-3 home run (I know), and everybody dies in the final game against a team of aliens.

Came here to confirm one Touch episode (everybody knows which one I'm talking about) and 5 Ookiku Furikabutte ones and found out 6 random non-baseball and mostly bad anime eps in an even more random list.

Well, just like everyone else, I find lack of Samurai Champloo in this list rather strange. But I also would include Dragon Ball Super baseball episode. It was glorious.

I think they were going for episodes in anime that are otherwise not about baseball, since there are a ton of baseball anime. Kinda like picking favorite Christmas episodes in works that aren't much about Christmas, e.g., Santa Company or Tokyo Godfathers.

Same. Even without the Yamcha meme joke the episode stands out as a great filler episode.This list is too short for Baseball episodes. Need a top 10 or 12.

Very outside pick but I would have included Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko. Okay there is about four episodes of baseball in the middle, but the last one is pretty integral to the series. And as mentioned above, the DBS episode was pretty good.

I love Touch, but an article that only had episodes from actual baseball anime would be missing the point. I clicked expecting Samurai Champloo as well, come on, the references to famous players' batting stances, just everything about the episode. "Ninja baseball!"
