Killing Time


On Monday the Padres and Phillies played their 1-0 game in 2 hours and 9 minutes.  The Rays and Yankees also managed all of one run between them in nine innings, but it took 3 hours and 28 minutes to finish.  And then we have yesterday’s White Sox-Royals’ affair, a 7-5 Sox win in nine innings that took up 4 hours and 16 minutes.  That happens to be a record for the Royals.

When they talk about baseball not being a slave to the clock, is this what they meant?
