According to wire stories I read
today, owners and players are negotiating to give us “baseball” instead of
baseball. And I’m not talking about the
DH in the National League.
Both sides have agreed to start
extra-inning games with a runner on second base. Apparently, players also want a rule change
to allow player re-entry, and at least one side has proposed that games can end
in a tie. What is this, travel ball with
14-player rosters?
I wonder when fans were supposed
to find out. Would Commissioner Rob
Manfred and Players’ Association President Tony appear together to announce the
changes or flip a coin to see who gets the honor? Both sides can’t agree on a season of
baseball in trying times, so they want to give us “baseball” in its place.
That’s OK, don’t bother.
