@no_limit_soja @JomboyMedia So it was better when the umps could just make any call they wanted and no one could review a play or get it corrected and everyone just had to deal with it?

@JomboyMedia Hot take: baseball was better before all of these replays, just allowing human error to be part of the game.

Phillies manager Rob Thomson got ejected because the umpires let the Nationals runner go back to third base after the call at first was overturned, even though he was tagged out

@SteveGold88 @NBCSports Honestly, I know it’s relevant in a bases loaded or late innings scenario where it can make a difference, but I don’t think ABS is meant to be used for calls that are 1/10th of an inch in the strike zone. I can’t stand the umps, but there is no such thing as pinpoint accuracy.

@SteveGold88 @NBCSports So you want the ump to calculate what percentage of the ball crossed over the plate before calling it a strike?

@dmbkparker @Jomboy_ Losing out on what? What excitement do you get off a close pitch that should be a ball called as a strike get you? Just get the call right and let the game be decided by the players on the field and not an incorrect call.

@Jomboy_ There’s something to be said for the feel of a game though. Punch outs, borderline calls, etc. I wonder if losing that loses some excitement in the name of 100% accuracy. That’s my struggle.

@asdadsays @FearedBuck Fair? Sure. I mean you gotta protect yourself at all times I guess. But that wasn’t honorable at all by the other fighter. That was bush league move to do all that while touching gloves

@FearedBuck If you raise your hand to touch gloves, the protocol is to touch gloves, reset, then begin. That was a sucker move. Cheap and dishonorable.

@DamonAmendo Committee did Duke dirty. Put the top overall seed in the toughest region and had them facing St John’s as the 5 seed in the Sweet 16.

What a game. Just undeniable evidence the committee did St. John’s dirty. There’s no way they’re a 5-seed, and they shouldn’t have to play the top overall seed in the Sweet 16.

Mason Miller was not available for four outs tonight, Craig Stammen said. That decision was made pregame. "It will be an option at some point in the season," he said. "Just not in Game 2."

@solivagantman @GJTheFrench @chriswithans Exactly. It just made the game more consistent with the amount of time between pitches. Makes it easier to get in the groove of knowing how much time you have to look at your phone or do something in between the action

@GJTheFrench @chriswithans The pitch clock didn't make baseball fast, it just made it not so ungodly slow. Returned it to the pace it used to be before players preened so much. It's still plenty leisurely (just ask anyone who hates it). And still played every day.

Turns out the slower overall pace and frequency of games is a big plus for baseball. That's because people really like having live background video in their homes while they use the Internet or do whatever else. I'm very serious about this. Baseball is one of the best forms of background "noise" for modern life. 2 hours, 15 minutes, with lots of breaks. And you can always tell when there's action because of the crowd noise. It's 162 games a year over 6 months + playoffs and spring training.

MLB has passed the NBA to become the second most popular pro sport. Quite the comeback, considering how baseball was left for dead a few years back:

@CM_Lewis @LumenExTenebris @FoulTerritoryTV Carlos Correa, Francisco Lindor, and Jose Altuve all didn’t participate in the WBC because of an issue with their insurance coverage. But if you get hurt playing with your MLB team, then it is covered. Which is why Skubal’s team wants him pitching for the Tigers and not elsewhere
