re: These new MLB rules have Made Baseball Great Again!!!!!

We went to a day game last year in the September heat and humidity. We walked what felt like 2 miles to the stadium. And waited outside the gate for another 30-45 minutes. Grabbed some drinks. And then took our seats probably another 30 minutes before first pitch. The game was 11-5. And ran 3.5 hours. That particular day, I would have definitely appreciated a quicker paced game. But we hung around to the end anyway since we live over 100 miles away, and Pujols got one more at bat in the 9th inning.

So I can definitely appreciate the shorter games in person. Especially for a day game in the heat and humidity in addition to a long drive home. But watching on TV, it doesn't matter to me as much. So I see both sides of it.
