More than moving the mound, changing the mound's height, changing the construction of the ball, changing what bats are allowed, allowing aluminum bats instead of only wooden bats, adding a DH, allowing instant replay, and challenges?
I don’t like aluminum bats, the DH or instant replay. The mound and ball are good where they are now.

Ark pitcher got a little attitude

Frustrating to have the 9 hole hitter lead off with a walk and then the top of the order can’t get him to second base.

OK well that's your opinion. The actual rules wouldn't change, just calls will be more consistent and accurate.
Adding the pitch clock was a bigger change to the overall structure of the sport. And honestly I'd argue a good one, so even if I concede your argument that doesn't necessarily mean change is bad. You sound afraid of progress.

Terrible. Fail to advance lead runner.

It’s hilarious that you think that happens regularly. Sure, some umps are better than others. Somehow we’ve managed to play this game for 200 years but now because a bunch of estrogen filled posters who have a victim complex we have to change the entire sport so your blood pressure doesn’t kill y’al
You sound scared.

An ump and a purist.
Take a Time Machine to 1920. I’m sure you’ll be happy there.

Stanfield gifts the top of the order with free base runner and we can’t even get him over to second base.

Boy would I.
And while I’m ranting. I think if you get HBP in the elbow guard you shouldn’t get to take a base.

You're trolling
Posted on 5/11/25 at 4:47 pm to HeadCall
That’s pretty shitty call
Posted on 5/11/25 at 4:47 pm to misey94
I hate rewarding the batter for watching that pitch

This fricking umpire man

This dudes strike zone is a wee bit tight.

Either be a purist or not. I say we go back to the old inconsistent balls, no gloves, 6 balls a walk, no mound and different bases because this guy doesn't want to change baseball.
You realize you are arguing for recent developments in baseball right? You say we've been doing this for 200 years but we haven't. None of what you are arguing for was around in baseball 200 years ago.
