The ghost runner rule is good

Complaining about baseball has become at least as much of a pastime as watching the game itself these days. Listen to a broadcast or a radio show during the week or read online and you will very quickly encounter all kinds of critiques, some of which clearly contradict each other. Baseball is too slow. The hitters strikeout too much. The pitchers throw too fast. There’s not enough scoring. There’s not enough home runs. There’s too many home runs. The shift is bad. The shift is good. Games are too long. The playoff system is broken. Analytics are ruining the game.
