The virtue of patience in baseball

Related Topics: Ned Yost, Nick Anderson

As humans, when things are going poorly, we want change and we want it now. When I get too hot at home, I turn down the AC and curse it for taking too long. I have fans set up all around my apartment for rapid cooldown at a moment’s notice. The digital age has only exacerbated this with video games and movies now being available for download in mere minutes. Before that, microwaves changed the game when it came to sating our appetites quickly. Even now more and more grocery stores are leaning into prepared meals to get busy, time-sensitive customers to purchase their products.
