Major League Baseball will undergo sweeping rule changes for the 2023 season. Here's everything you need to know about the new rules.
"I don't think we have to be right on all of this stuff," Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell said this spring. “I think that's one of the modes that baseball has to get out of. We can be wrong, but we're trying to make it better. We have to try things to make it better. Sometimes you have to fail to do things better. We can be wrong, because it will get us closer to a better answer.
"I don't think anyone would sit down and say, 'Hey, we really want to have a 25%, 30% strikeout rate?' It's just recognizing that the game's changing a little bit. It's important for everyone who cares about the game just to have a discussion that can be thoughtful and intentional about steering in the direction that's good for everybody, particularly the fans.
The penalty for violating the rule: The pitcher will be charged with a ball, the hitter with a strike. The bases will also be enlarged from 15 inches to 18 inches, which never fueled objections by anyone, making it a bit easier to steal bases while making it a bit safer for first basemen not to be spiked.
They’re even shortening the time with walk-up music, leaving just 10 seconds of a few notes and lyrics.
