How many purists croak of a heart attack after they read this in the morning's paper?

All of them. It's stupid.

It’s the minors. Pfftttt

Just call it a tie and give each team half a point or whatever.

Meh. Just start each batter at 3-2. That would be interesting.

Changing the rules is dumb.

I'd probably watch baseball if that were applied to innings 1-9

Running MLB like soccer would be interesting, in my opinion. It might force shit owners to actually spend money and compete a bit. In the mid-to-late 90s, the Royals would have dropped to farm team status.
