Baseball Sucks Now

But baseball matters.

I'm philosophically opposed to sports with clocks.

And sports where the size of a single player controls the outcome of an entire game.

Amen!

Personally, I didn't care about the no hitter. I didn't feel invested for some reason. I disagree with removing pitchers early because the more hitters face "armpen" options, the easier it is to time them and grow accustomed to their stuff. So I wanted the starter to stay in to give the bullpen a rest. That bullpen is going to be maxed out in another game or 2, and then games 5/6/7 are going to be offensive slaughters. I don't agree with using starters as closers because you can't efficiently manage the bullpen. It has become too common. It takes away the magic of what pitchers like Randy Johnson and Bumgarner did in the WS.

You must have hated Big Unit.

Plus baseball needs a clock.

Wasn't it Bergman who had a pretty good bunt from the dugout?

Exactly, maybe he should do that when they shift him...
