quote:

Major League Baseball is making it permanent: In all regular-season extra-inning games, a runner will be placed on second base to begin the 10th inning, and in every subsequent extra inning after that, until a winner is determined, according to a source familiar with the situation.

Commissioner Rob Manfred intimated all winter that the rule would return in 2023, and the joint competition committee has now voted unanimously to adopt the rule that has been in place for the past three seasons.

I hate this shite so much.

They will kill the sport before it’s all said and done.

Should be at least the 11th so you get one minimum regular extra inning.

I’m fine with it. And I once sat through an 18 inning Astros game.

I love it, 9 inning games are already over 3 hours. Whether you in the ballpark or watching, it’s tough to stay/keep watching. That’s why the ballpark starts to empty out when extras start

If the attention starts fading at 3 hours, it fades. What happens with this stupid compromise is that the games still drag on another 30 minutes because each team scores so easily with runners already on second base.

So now your audience is gone AND you cheapened the game.

I wish it was delayed until a few innings later. But if it wasn't in place some games would drag on forever.

On the bright side, for all the Agents of Chaos who use the "Score App" and ever meanders into the Chat Rooms...

They can continue to type "Lead Off Double" in the chat at the start of every extra inning.
