I'd like to see what distraction it would bring. Of course, if the first game took 3 hours and 50 minutes the new rules didn't have much effect anyway.

Of course,as far as I know, everyone has complied and no penalties have been assessed. That will be the 'pudding' test.

MLB should adopt the same rules. On Wed, May 26, 2010 at 3:34 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: I mentioned the experimental time clock and rules earlier. In addition to the batter being awarded a ball if a pitcher fails to begin his wind up in 20 seconds, a batter who takes more than 20 seconds to get back ion the box will be awarded a strike. Teams are allowed 90 seconds, 130 for TV games, to take the field between half innings. If the offensive team is late, a strike is awarded the 1st batter. A late defense causes a ball to be granted the 1st batter.
