Some of it is bad baseball. Players hurt themselves stretching or running the bases.

Moneyball (a great movie btw) basically killed baseball.

It used to be that you'll have a feel for the game. You'll bunt, then try to steal 2nd base. Etc.

Now it's a walk. Home run. Strike out. Three true outcomes.

Yes it seems like strategies of old just don’t get much play anymore.

You don’t hear much about the Hit and Run play anymore.

You don’t see too many stolen bases anymore.
