Major League Baseball Proposes A New Extra Innings Rule–Let’s Look At The Math – Forbes

For those of us who really love baseball this is part of the charm, but for the average mid-week ballgame attendee who has to go to work in the morning it might be nice if things could move along a bit quicker. And heaven forbid the game go into…
