How many replays made the longest game ever? They have been trying to speed up the game for years but they’ve only made them longer. Replay delays are about commercials not getting it right.

‘They have been trying to speed up the game for years but they’ve only made them longer.’

return baseball to the game it was in the ‘30’s and ‘40’s...batter walks up to the plate, pitcher gets a sign, throws the ball, gets it back from the catcher, and within ten seconds pitches again...batter remains in box awaiting the next pitch; no stepping out to readjust gloves, or scratch his ass, pitcher not peering in for 15 seconds then stepping off the mound to go through signal communication; also, change some rules such as foul balls; I know it won’t go over too well, but two fouls with two strikes should be an out...something has to change, the game is unwatchable today...

Just like in politics, they don’t really mean what they say.
