    Caught the last few moments of Brian Kenneys Show heard a guest comment an improvement to the game would be to have the batter simply return to the dugout. Jesus Christ where do they find them?

    Huh? Return to the dugout? After a hit?

    My bad, I apologize, the man stated that when a batter hit a home run he should return to the dugout rather than run the bases. Some of these ideas to "speed up " the game are getting out of hand.

    Speeding up the game in Baseball was never an issue for me...and I don't understand why people don't mind spend 3+ hours watching a Football game but don't want to spend 3+ hours watching a Baseball game.

    But IMO, both FB and BB would both be sped up if they'd simplify and streamline the replay system and how and when managers can challenge a call.

    Running the bases is the pure essence of baseball from 1903 until now. How can fans appreciate the home run when a robot slams one over the fence?
