The one thing I think they need to fix is the time between pitches. If you aren't brushed back I don't understand why you need to get out of the box and reset. I get that I don't get paid millions but unless a ball moves my feet I never take both feet out of the box. The 20 second rule or whatever they have is a joke and obviously never used.

I get what you're saying. IMO it's just part of the relaxed beauty of the game. The aggresion comes once the ball is hit. The rest is what some call "the thinking man's game." I get why some don't like it but I do. When I spend the money for a ticket to the game I don't want it too be rushed. I want to spend the whole day there. It's my happy place.
