Game 2 and Game 3 of WS both lasted less than three hours, and honestly, cannot remember a WS game going less than three hours in years. New rules were best decision by MLB since the strike in 1994. Pitch clock, limit throws to 1st base, and relievers have to face three batters have all worked like a charm to restore pace of play to the national pastime.

And I can't see any difference in the way the games are managed, last night think both teams used five pitchers, so it is not like you can't make a pitching change when necessary.

And, I read a couple of days ago that attendance and TV viewership for the regular season have both been up. All in all, has been awesome.

Now, Arizona needs to win, bet them at 8-5 for the series!

I’m boycotting postseason baseball. For all of the good pace of play changes, the expansion of playoff teams has been a disaster. What a worthless World Series this is - two mediocre teams going head to head.
