Now a pitcher has to be in for 3 batters, pitch clock, rules on where you place fielders, base runner at second in extra innings, Unbalanced schedules, designated hitters, etc.

How will this affect Frank Drebin when he calls a baseball game?

So happy you chose to post here about
something you don’t care about!
Thanks!

I’d rather watch the Savannah Bananas.

Liam Neeson is playing Frank Drebin Jr. in the new Naked Gun movie.

I hope that movie is good.

I explain the why. If you don’t like the why, you don’t have to comment.

YOU: “I quit caring a long time ago.”

ME: “Apparently not.”

So if Greg Maddux played today he would win, what, 150 games lifetime ?

I comment on Hillary but I care not.

[dfwgator]

Have you seen the preview?

[moviefan8]

I saw the trailer once a while ago. I think it was on television.

[BarbM]

Agreed. It's overdue.

But what about all the games that were won or lost on a bad call from the umpire? We can't go back and redo all those games. I say we stay with the human game of baseball with human umps (are these ump machines programmed like voting machines? How do you fix the game?)

why not just have AI make all the calls perfectly every time
