about the pitch clock.

There were some issues pitch wise, announcer wise and batter wise. This will not be
the final product.….they were talking about it on ESPN 1000 radio this morning….

Marcus Stroman’s violation was ridiculous and the entire stadium boo’d.

Like I said, for me, an extra 5 seconds and flat time will give it more of a natural feel
and give everyone ample time….or the clock will be eliminated after the 7th inning.

One thing critics mentioned on ESPN is that during the WBC the matchup between
Trout and Ohtani went well past the current time rule because there was no pitch clock
in that tournament….the current pitch clock would have killed the beautiful tension and
drama that played out during that moment. That’s one thing that has been pen
pointed because those stars have to be showcased and there can’t be any interruption
with that.

So I imagine some type of flat control will be implemented to even things out
