Baseball games seem brief

I’m pro because the thing keeping me away from weekday after-work games is my 4:30 wake-up time. I need to get back to Everett, by public transit, to sleep!

Unsurprisingly, most of the people who stay up late to write up a 4-3 loss to the A’s on a Thursday night are pro pitch clock, but there are some key objections to the pitch clock also raised in our discussion. https://www.lookoutland…

How long should the pitch clock be set to?

Options are in seconds with the bases empty / runners on. Current rule is 15 / 20.

Please boost so we can get decent representation.

I'm not enjoying the pitch clock. The game feels too rushed now. Baseball is supposed to be relaxing. This ain't basketball.

@mtkr I'd think that stuff would've been worked out a little more in , in the sense that if it were going to be an issue, there'd have been more violations then.

Not to oversimplify, but I wonder how many of the guys that ran/will run into this today league-wide (assuming it's happening to more than the Sox) were away in the .

One thing I’ll add about the : if there’s not a physical clock behind home plate that’s visible on TV, TV broadcasters need to display it in their score bug. Viewers need to be informed, especially in the rule’s inaugural season.

First time watching a game with the new and I gotta say I definitely feel a pick-up in the pace. I'm a relatively new fan but the difference between last season spring training this season feels pretty big and I'm into it.

adding a to fundamentally alters the best and most essential thing about the game--its literal *timelessness,* the clocktick fading as pitcher and batter take one another's measure--and the reason the curs at MLB have done so is that, while fans might enjoy the actual 'game' of 'baseball,' the league is in the business of producing a live TV broadcast and couldn't care less about the game per se.
