I absolutely hate the timed format. Give us no time to admire absolute tanks like we used to. Before the ball evem lands, theyre throwing the next pitch. Plus we get a split screen because ESPN show where the ball lands full screen or they miss the next swing.


Sucks.

The ESPN2 version is better and easier to follow.

There should just be one round, 10 outs untimed. No bracket, the first round is the best part anyway when they’re hitting absolute bombs because they aren’t tired

Yup. It’s essentially BP with this format. I enjoyed the drama and suspense when it was 10 outs.

I hope those aren't the uniforms for the game tomorrow night.

I thought they announced they're going back to team jerseys for the game.

Theyre going back to wearing individual team uniforms. The way it should be.

The day ESPN fires Ravech and Perez, I’ll rejoice. Their “B” team is 10x better

Can Perez ever just shut the frick up. He's ruined the sport for me on different levels.

Perez gets on my nerves for no particular reason.

There's plenty of reasons.
