We Second, Third, Fourth, Etc. that Thought

This will be a short post, but we encourage you to check out this SI.com article written by Nolan Ruth who covers sports in Texas.  By the way, who should know more about baseball than someone with the last name of Ruth!

The Pitch Clock Will do More Harm for Baseball than Good

This article touches on a number of themes we have covered in our short life here at Baseball Purist.  Most notably it points out the risk of injuries with the implementation of pitch clocks, as noted in one of our previous blog posts, Faster Games vs More Injuries

In Mr. Ruth’s article he also mentions the reduction of nuance and the excitement level of the game with the implementation of these new rule changes.

Overall, we cannot agree with you more Mr. Ruth.
