Why not address the most egregious rule in sports, the loophole that rendered the greatest player in the 160-year history of the sport meaningless in the biggest game of the season last night?
The solution is putting other strong batters behind Ohtani until the analytics say it's better to pitch to him. That's it.
Changing the rules is so over the top

Ohtani was 4-4 in that game and they infernally walked him because of it and his teammates failed around him
They have pitched to him every other game and he is 2-15. Baseball rules are just fine
The only reason we saw so many intentional walks is because the game went 18 innings. He actually had zero intentional walks all series “in regulation”

Exactly, is it a little cheap sure, but not worth changing the entire rules of baseball. I'd say walking him was the logical play but TBH doing it 4x in a row seems a bit fearful/emotional
