MLB to put runner on second base to try and speed up play

Maybe call me a traditionalist on this topic, but I’m not a fan of this proposal. I can usually see a positive in most new changes the MLB and commissioner Rob Manfred put in place, but this one I’m not seeing it.

Of course, even I’m thinking, who am I to say? But if we get enough people behind it, maybe it could make a difference.

I’m not a fan of the MLB putting a runner on second base in extra innings. This is coming from an Associated Press report that came out earlier today.
