Sooo why are they sooo long MR Manfred? Well I have been watching all the playoffs this year and I have come to the conclusion MR Manfred that it is all about the MONEY! You have an avg of 5 min after every half inning in TV commercials. That's an avg of 85 min added to a game. Now I am seeing side commercials between batters. Enough already! Then add more time with every pitching change. Soooo MR Manfred MLB is extending a game by at least an hour and a half because of MONEY.
So stop Bi tching! The longer the game goes the more money that is being made.
I am very sure that the networks are loving it also.
Now you can understand why the avg time of a game pre-1950 was 1 hour and 41 min. No TV No Commercials. Hell, Babe Ruth pitched and won a 14 inning world series game in 1916 that took only 58 minutes to play, the whole game! A 14 inning game. Thanks for reading my BI TCHING.
P.S. lets add another 15-20 min for instant replay.
