BTW, I enjoyed the World Baseball Championship (whatever its called)... wonder why it didn't get more pub. Seems like that could be a huge freaking deal if they worked it right.

I heard a theory about playing that up a bit. It would be a two week break from major league baseball in July, and you would play it then.

So MLB goes to 142 games or the WS is played in December.

Don’t know, it was a couple of talking voices on espn radio. Only half listened. Probably just a couple of Suits figuring out a way to milk more money out of that tournament.

Out of context photo. Joey Weimer brewers rookie from Bedford I think? This is a bit, right?

Boom.

What Gen are you. My daughter and her boyfriend are saying they’d rather go to copa now. I’m on the fence, but it’s my opinion your gen and my kids Gen are saying “fuck, this is great, it’s fun at games but not 4 hours of fun”

millenial i think? I'm 29 so older than your kids.

i could always watch baseball (mostly if im betting on it, as with most sports) but i've watched a few games so far this early in the season and it's noticeably better in my opinion.

"Runners went 21 of 23 on stolen bases on Opening Day for an average of 1.53 attempts per game. By comparison, games saw just 0.67 stolen base attempts per game during the 2022 regular season"

"The 15 Opening Day contests came in at an average of 2:45, 18 minutes shorter than the average regular season game in 2022."

https://www.nbcsports.com/boston/red-sox/how-mlb-rule-changes-are-affecting-game-length-runs-and-more

i'm not sure if it was ever about the actual length of the game for me, but more of the "pace" if that makes sense. but i guess its kind of the same thing at the end of the day.

They could shorten games by not having as many commercials...

You have got to be kidding me. Just put a New Era logo on the thing.

MLB tells Braves to stop celebrating home runs with big hat

The Atlanta Braves have been celebrating home runs with an oversized hat this season, but MLB is putting a stop to that.

Major League Baseball has told the Braves they can no longer sport the oversized baseball cap to celebrate home runs after the league heard complaints from New Era, the manufacturer of the official on-field cap.

So you folks are out here betting on college baseball? OTPT, you're better than this.

Ohio gambling regulators on Monday instructed the state's licensed sportsbooks to halt betting on college baseball games involving Alabama after suspicious wagering activity was detected on the Crimson Tide's game against top-ranked LSU on Friday.

The directive, issued by Ohio Casino Control Commission executive director Matthew T. Schuler and obtained by ESPN, prohibits "the acceptance of any wagers on University of Alabama baseball effective immediately."
