    I actually read the books, and it is mentioned in there that they can only play when a storm is coming because they make too much noise.
    Super strong vampires+baseball=loud, thunder-like crashes.
    and, I don't remember if it was like this in the movie, but when they collide (trying to run to a base/trying to get them out) they make lots of noise as well. :)

    I haven't read the books, but from what I understood, it was because of the sound.

    I watched the movie, and everytime they hit the ball it sounded like a crack of thunder.

    If they did this during a sunny day, people would be like wtf.

    What location? ;o
    Sounds like an atmospheric thing. Storm = Tension = What they want to achieve in the movie?

    Part of film techniques, I guess. Though it's dangerous. Lightning! xD

    Lol, I thought it was because of the sunlight? I only watched the movie, and I'm NOT a fan, so it wouldn't surprise me if I was wrong, it's just what I remember from the movie.

    It's because they hit the ball with enough force to make it sound like thunder, and if there wasnt a storm people would think it was weird.

    It's because of the sound. :/ I never really got that though. I can't imagine it sounding like thunder tbh... in my opinion it's just a fail on Stephenie Meyer's part D:

    Please do not gravedig

    I'm pretty sure it's because of the sound the ball makes when they hit it with the bat. And probably the sounds they make when they hit the ground/run into each other at great speeds. xD
