Baltimore Orioles: A pitch clock will not capture new fans

Despite what Buck Showalter from the Baltimore Orioles has to say about the pitch clock, it seems like a completely unnecessary addition to the game.

In an article by Eduardo A. Encina in the Baltimore Sun, Showalter had a few words to say about the impending pace-of-play changes.

He said: “It’s a good move. It’s not going to affect the pitchers. It’s going to affect the hitters, and if we can take the game from three-plus [hours] to under three, it’s a better game.”

It’s baseball, not McDonald’s

As a fan who loves to go to baseball games at stadiums all over the country, I have to disagree with Showalter.
