6 things I learned watching the pitch clock in action

3. I Like It!

As long as it punishes the time wasting hitters, too.
Games literally take 51 minutes longer on average, than they were 45 years ago.
There are 30 seconds of extra ads each half inning. That's only 9 minutes.
The other 42 minutes add NOTHING to the fan experience.
If only half of that is caused by dawdling (and I think that's understated), 21 minutes of dead time is eliminated.
I don't watch games for, & most fans don't go to see an extra 21 minutes (at least) of zero action.
I honestly don't understand the purism that resists this idea.
I would think such purism would be rooted in the pace of play as it was for the first 120 years of the professional game. If so, how could a purist/traditionalist oppose it?
