Go from 4 balls, 3 strikes to 3 balls, 2 strikes. Forces both pitchers and hitters to be aggressive, shortening games and increasing offense. |

Eliminate God Bless America at Yankees games Eliminate Yankees/Red Sox games Limit pitching changes to once an inning Make the intentional walk automatic instead of wasting 4 pitches. |

I love the one foot in the box rule. Hitters and their antics have gone too far. Enough of the grandstanding. Keep your dumb ass in the box and swing the fuckin bat. |

I think more pitchers are the problem than hitters, though I agree both pitchers and hitters should get ready to pitch/hit more quickly.

Eliminate extra innings and replace them with a home run derby. |

1. One pitching change per inning 2. One feed inside batters box These together solve the problem. I'd also add in the following, but I know it will never happen. 3. expand strike zone |
