    But the long time fans don't like rule changes like this. So they can either keep playing baseball like it has been for 150 years and watch offenses keep on playing like they do or they can get the rule change and see teams attempt to play like they used to.

    You remember that time?
    When the Reds used Harang in that extra inning game and blew out his arm?
    Yeah, yeah gee that smarts.
    Oh I hate it when that happens…

    I don't care how well we do in these games, it's stupid and I honestly can't believe it was ever agreed on. It's a joke games are decided this way. No serious league would allow it.

    I'd rather see a HR contest, each team selects one power hitter and he gets 10 out.
    Go Gators!

    I love rule. Anything to shorten a baseball game. Nothing worse than being stuck in the stadium for and endless extra inning game.

    i think you know what he means. the backup right fielder coming in to pitch in the 18th inning isn't exactly "baseball." i mean, it technically is, but i think you get his point.

    No I don't

    Nothing worse than extra inning baseball?

    How about the starter giving up ten runs in the 1st?

    In 2019 there were 2430 MLB games, 66 were longer than 13 innings, 2.7%, five were 18 or more 0.02%

    Nothing but a tear in a salted sea

    Damn iPad fingers

    The Reds played in ONE game longer than 12 innings in 2019. Seems ridiculous to bellyache about it
