Post subject: | MLB to ban home-plate collisions |
Quote: ESPN.com reports: Home-plate collisons will be banned by Major League Baseball, possibly as early as next season but no later than 2015, MLB said Wednesday. In response to injuries that result from collisions, catches will not be allowed to block the plate and runners will be prohibited from targeting catchers, rules committee chairman Sandy Alderson said. The changes are subject to approval by owners. Good. Next get rid of take-out slides/the area play at second. |

Why don't they just dress the catcher in a skirt? What's next, a prison sentence for hitting at batter? |

They should have two home plates. runner goes to the unoccupied one. Then after the play, they lift up a door on the plate and if Bud's face appears, you SCORE! otherwise YUROUT! |

Stupid. Don't stand on the tracks when there's a train coming through. If you can't run over the catcher, then he can't block the plate either. Its only fair. I say keep things the way they are. |

I say a catcher should be able to block the plate, but only if he takes his shin guards off. |

Stay in the on-deck circle and don't try to time a guy's pitches and you might not lose an eye. That fucker should have read the unwritten rule book. |
