Rob and Chris discuss potential rule changes in baseball, including the pitch clock and the proposed "golden batter" rule. Chris explains that the golden batter rule would allow teams to insert any player as a batter at any time, regardless of the batting order. He expresses concerns that the 20-second pitch clock could lead to more injuries for pitchers who need more time between pitches. Rob wonders if these changes are helping or hindering the game from a fan's perspective, as games move faster but fans may miss more action. They debate the pros and cons of the changes to increase excitement and speed up play.

Rule Changes and Fan Preferences

In the meeting, Chris and Rob discussed the impact of rule changes on the enjoyment of sports games. They agreed that the speed of games, particularly in baseball, has become too fast, potentially affecting fan experience and attendance. They also discussed the shift in fan preferences, with some fans preferring to spend their money on other sports like hockey. The conversation ended with the idea of a future show discussing where fans should spend their money for the best sports experience.
