The problem with baseball is the pace. It’s 12 seconds of action crammed into 4 hours of coverage. It’s a dying pastime among the young because it doesn’t satisfy our need for constant entertainment.
I understand that baseball is highly strategic, and that’s somewhat compelling as a participant, but a pure strategy game is not necessarily fun to watch. Chess is also a pure strategy game, but guess what? I won’t watch chess either.
Thumbs down if it makes you feel better, but I’m just the messenger.
