The extra innings rule is good, actually

There are three things in life that are a surety: death, taxes, and baseball people complaining when things change. To be fair, humans in general complain when things change. We like just enough change for things to be relatively fresh, but are quickly overwhelmed whenever there is any substantive difference on the horizon.

The only constant of 2020 has been change, which has been hard on everyone. But one change that we knew about before...everything else...was the change to the extra innings rule. If a game was previously tied at the end of nine innings, the game would just keep adding innings until someone won.
