“Baseball” is the opening track of Hippo Campus' third EP Warm Glow. The track has been played at Hippo Campus shows for a long time prior to release, with the first recorded live version posted on May 3, 2016. It was originally set to be the closing track on Landmark, but was replaced with “Buttercup” relatively late in the recording process. Nathan Stocker, the band guitarist touched on this decision more:

We always wanted it to be out in the world, doing its thing. I think it’s tryna decide like in what light it should exist, I guess. In what world it should exist? It didn’t really fit with Landmark so we kinda just waited on it.

"I’m pretty sure it was a joke, like “let’s call it Baseball.” We’ll record voice memos on our phones when we’re jamming out ideas and somebody will just throw out down name for it. Baseball was just thrown down as the voice memo name. We just wrote some lyrics that had baseball."
