Comparing a FIRST game to a baseball game IMO is perhaps a strech. Yes both game require strategy and knowledge of the game but I've always considered a FIRST game as a fast paced hetic and choatic match and I personally can't watch baseball because it move too slow. So no I can't turn on a baseball game and see who winning beyond looking at the score. However, I can turn on a hockey game take a quick look at the score, see that the puck is staying in the Avalanches zone and that the players are tired and make a quick assesment of how each team is doing.
In addition in most sports the real time scoring is 100% correct because that is the official score. In many of the FIRST games i've seen the score will change dractically between real-time and official score without any pentalties being assessed.
