Jonathan, you’re just going to have to take the L on baseball’s rule changes. They are heaven-sent for a sport that was nearing its death-bed. I don’t think you will hear from many who love baseball more than me - it has been my calendar since the age of 12 - but few people have the time or patience for night after night of 3:40 games. All that has been eliminated is excess, while baseball as a sport has been restored.

Of all the changes listed on that screenshot, there was no mention of using the electronic strike zone instead of umpires for balls and strikes. If a pitch clock drives you into the jungle for 50 years, I’m frightened to think of the reaction to no more egregiously missed calls by the home plate ump.
