They did it for baseball, now do it for football and golf...

boxscorenews.com - Pitchers are no longer able to take their sweet time before throwing the ball across the plate. One major new rule for the 2023 MLB season is pitchers now have a time limit and must throw a pitch before the clock runs out of time. More than 3 in 5 (62%) MLB fans like the pitch clock rule change. The top reason why fans approve is because it moves the game along and makes it faster.
A faster game is attracting more fans to stadiums: 45% plan to attend more games this year because of the pitch clock rule changes. Among those who have already gone to a game in 2023, 83% said the game went faster, thanks to the rule changes. Based on these results, it’s no surprise 70% of fans prefer speedier MLB games.
 

I really like the new pace of the game. The beer sellers and the TV guys think it sucks. Tough titties. Juss' sayin'...

  1. Always the pitcher to blame huh? How about falling asleep waiting for Nomar Garciapara to get himself ready to step in box? and there were a ton more of those guys. I for one like the pitch clock
