Tick-tock. And not Tik-Tok.
Wonder how soon a book will come out about the rule changes and how they impacted the 2023 season? Russell Carlton — who will release The New Ballgame: The Not-So-Hidden Forces Shaping Modern Baseball in June, devoted a whole volume to The Shift: The Next Evolution in Baseball Thinking in 2018. Maybe there will be a bizarro version next year.
In the meantime, there will be lots of articles like this from New York Magazine by Will Leitch (although some will no doubt take the opposing point of view). I’m just waiting for an infraction to occur in the bottom of the ninth of Game Seven of the World Series, similar to what happened the other day.
