there are W A Y too many games and the Nine Inning thing needs to go...we attended a couple of 7 inning games that were caused by rain outs and it was a pleasure. The tickets cost way too much for most fans to attend more than a few games a year. I feel that Baseball is dying. I haven't had my home team on the TV all year because I quit with the Cable Ripoff, besides I have never been able to sit and watch a nine inning game on TV for years. I now have zero interest in the playoffs. I feel the same about Football, to many commercials and my home team hasn't been competitive in 25 years....boring! I tune in for the playoffs mostly.

How about limiting defensive shifts? n/t Probatim Oct 2021 #6

Get rid of the shift, spare me the stat minutia, and lower ticket and concession prices Bristlecone Oct 2021 #7
