MLB 2023

All sports. We don't even mind if its women's Curling or junior badminton. Although we won't have strong opinions on the latter.

Hate it. Every at-bat is a mind game match-up between the pitcher and batter and adding a timer takes away from that. Baseball is chess, not checkers. I don't understand the need for shortening games other than attempting to collect extra commercial ad revenue. Nobody wants to go to a 90 minute baseball game. Really bad for the sport.

Almost ready to lock in to playoff baseball after not caring about the sport for five months 😎

Kershaw gave up 6 runs, only got one out and he was pulled in the first. Dodgers getting absolutely blitzed 9-0 right now.

You love to see it.

To be honest, I really don't want an Astros-Phillies rematch of last year...

Don't really have a dog in the fight in this World Series. But that Adolis guy sure can swing a bat right now...

Crazy to see just how removed from the national consciousness the World Series is now. They made the game more casual-friendly and it didn’t help really.

The problem with the NFL is it got too big. Started catering to casuals with Super Bowl halftime shows and now it's all gotten out of control.

Baseball didn't even get big. It just went down the wrong path. Lol. Kinda wanted Arizona to beat the Rangers, but it was a decent Series. At least they're not blatantly rigging games like the NFL/NBA is.
