Another shot just short of the warning track.

The brilliance of a small ball team is when it works vs. non small ball teams in a stadium and with equipment that gives the long ball hitters a fair chance. Those pitchers then throw masterful games because the fear of homerun is always in the air. I appreciate small ball teams. But not when it succeeds only because the pitchers don't have to sweat a homer. That is certainly not baseball.

To those that say adapt - that is bs. Adapting is situational and yes teams need to bunt and manufacture run at times. But not for the entire CWS every team has to adapt to 1, yes 1 certain style of baseball. Thats just bs.

Baseball is by far my favorite sport. But I watched maybe a total of 2 innings of the action in Omaha this year.

The ballpark ruins it for me.

It's not the stadium. It's the slowing down of the sport from the bats.
But most of all, the format of the CWS is way too drawn out. They should run Wed thru Sun and then go home.
The two together - slow baseball and a slow tournament are a disaster.
