RE: Time for Baseball to Make a Radical Change: Blow Up the Ninth Inning and Let the Stars Shine

in #sports7 years ago (edited)

That's a problem for Major League Baseball, which is struggling to attract younger fans. Not only that Baseball should adopt the proposal to allow the team behind in the score to reset its lineup order for the ninth inning, the league also recently announced another rule changes for the 2018 season intended to increase the speed of play and shorten games. I am hopeful that the changes they make will eventually get them into a spot where they would be comfortable with pace of play and the length of the game.

Sort:  

All of that will help, but do you really think making games 6 minutes faster will attract a younger audience? They need some bigger changes.

Yes, I would definately add some rewards for fans, somehow involve blockchain technology. Fans being rewarded for watching, just like steemiens being rewarded for coments.

Ha ha ha, @rothberg! The fielders have to live-post articles on Steemit while they're playing. They get Steem based on how well they play. Heck, convert their salaries to Steem and see what they do. :)
