If tweet fails to load, click here. Good. The timed rounds got to where you couldn't enjoy and marvel at a bomb because before the ball lands, they're throwing the next pitch. Then you get split screened because its moving so fast and don't get a good look at where they landed.

This is ASTOUNDING news. Would still prefer the "outs" format but this is miles better than the time.
The people want to actually watch the home runs.

Being able to keep hitting until you miss for the last swing is at least reminiscent of “down to the final out”.

Ive got to say GOOD JOB MLB! Like the other poster said. We want to SEE the dingers! I will never forget my first dinger when i was just a young pup playing t ball for team Strike Force in the Bossier City league. I could have stood there and wached that baby go for miles but of course had to book it around the bases as my coaches chered me on to GO GO GO! A moment i will never forget!

As should we all. A record length DONG is something we can all appreciate!

I would like to see pitches instead of swings.

The timer was awful. If they want to shorten it just make it two rounds. The first round when everyone is fresh and are letting it eat on every swing is the best anyway. Let the top two advance to a head to head and call it.
