[QUOTE="Ryllini, post: 1182443, member: 10826"] What is the real root of the problem? I'm guessing it really isn't offense, I'd say without the numbers in front of me, that between the two leagues there isn't more than a full run scored per game on average. Combined score per game maybe, but not on average per team. I have been wrong before. To me, this is all about length of time per game and this doesn't do anything to fix it. I'd rather them limit mound visits per inning/game. Catcher/pitcher and when the manager comes out. Limit pitching changes in the middle of an inning. Time doesn't really bother me, but I definitely see how that is a huge problem for the casual/new fan. The problem could be injuries, but I would say it is minimal that it happens to pitchers while batting, usually the injuries are pitching related. Waino didn't get hurt because of the at bat, that tendon could snapped at any time, walking down the stairs or planting on a delivery. [/QUOTE]
