re: Is the new "pray for a walk/error" college baseball style affecting attendance?

used to hit my bosses up for their tickets every year. There were always some available. I really have no inclination to go. The game has been neutered to the worst degree, and yes, attendance is suffering.

See, I was offered to go 1 week back, but I didn't feel like making the trip from TX to go. It's not a bad drive and it used to be a fun weekend, but I just have no real want to see 7 bunts, 6 combined errors, 12 combined walks, and 5 seeing eye singles accoutn for 99% of the offense. Maybe I'll get lucky and see McMullen pull one that clears the wall by an inch.

So, I went to see the Astros attempt baseball vs the Angels instead. Granted the Astros suck, but it was still entertaining to see Hamilton and Trout go deep. Or to see a few doubles to the gap.
