used to enjoy the contest of pacing between batter and pitcher. baseball is a lot less relaxing now with that fucking clock ticking down in the corner of the screen. if you must have a clock at least stop fucking showing it on the overlay graphics MLB

    More than likely in our lifetime, baseball will end up being a pay-per-view service where you buy viewing rights (like boxing), but there will still be ads.

      I could see that for the NFL because there are comparatively so few games per (regular) season (17 games per team with 32 teams), but an MLB regular season has 162 games each for 30 teams (and the All-Star game too haha). Unless an individual game costs less than $2 in 2023 money, no way are most consumers even thinking about paying for that imo
