<I know noise makes for a problem in football, where you can't hear signals, but baseball I'm not sure about.>

Infielders, but mostly the outfielders need to hear the "crack" of the bat to determine how hard the ball has been hit and to time their move to the ball. All they need is that split second of sound.
