    The pitch clock has definitely sped up games, ~but that time saved has been filled by more ads.~ Just make the pitchers suffer more so we can get more big hitters 🤑

      Surprisingly, no. Games are shorter end-to-end now, with the reduction coming during the actual broadcast.

      They're jamming more adds on jerseys, superimposed behind pitcher's mounds, etc., but the whole game has been significantly condensed.

        Oh shit you’re right!

        I don’t know how I didn’t even realize the broadcasts were shorter. Maybe they still seem long to me because baseball is one of my only interactions with ads in general.
