Its a cash thing. The 'AA dosen't give out more baseball scholarships because the sport as a whole generates little money


Baseball makes more money for the NCAA than everything other than Basketball. Thats because of the regionals and CWS. Football goes to the schools and the bowls. Baseball is like that because of Title 9. Football takes up a majority of mens schollies and they have to even it out. Womens rowing has more scholarships than baseball.

True, but that still doesn't explain why deadweight men's sports like water polo exist. Why not sacrifice those for the sake of baseball?
