Baseball owners will discuss putting in a "pitch clock" into games
to speed up play.
Like the shot clock in basketball, the Pitch clock is supposed to get
pitchers to throw the ball quickly like Mark Buehrle does.
I don't like the idea.
Pitching is an artform not a mechanical machine.
There are reasons why a pitcher wants to change the timing
of his deliveries - - - to keep the batter off balance.
If a pitcher is taking too much time now, the ump can warn him.
The system has worked for more than a century, why change it?
Oh, to be like the NFL which needs new rules every week so
the league office can justify its hefty salaries.
