Nice comparison. (Still can't forgive you beating my Tribe in the Series!) The rule changes in society as well as baseball are a bit of a concern. Why are the people not more fully involved? Shouldn't we all have a say in who makes the rules and why? And are we changing for the good, or just the sake of change?

We aren't involved, I think for two reasons. We choose not to be involved, and the authorities have placed barriers to involvement. I think I'm saying that the focus of change should be to facilitate the natural development of the game, to place guardrails, to allow adjustments, to stop "field tilting."

The complexity of complexes can be favorably altered if Javy Baez stays away from the low, outside slider like he did yesterday against the Cardinals...

Commentary after the game suggests he's been working on it. Pretty good game and the White Sox took care of the Cardinals today. And we can open up against the Pirates.
