Well, it’s official. The game is changing again next year.
Three rule changes became official on Friday and have been widely reported for a few days now. In case you missed them, though, here’s Jon Morosi to explain what they are and why they are happening.
OFFICIAL: @MLB adopts rule changes beginning next season. The pitch clock has been instituted (:15 with bases empty). Defensive shifts are banned. Bases are larger.
Significant and substantive changes, with the objective of returning the game's natural rhythm. @MLBNetwork— Jon Morosi (@jonmorosi) September 9, 2022I could sit here and argue for or against the rule changes, but who really cares about my opinion on that.
