I do not think that we should change the rules of a game as old as baseball just because attention spans are getting shorter. For me, part of the beauty of the game is that it takes a brain and an attention span to really get it. I happen to love watching the strategies that managers use in the later innings playing out in front of me. Baseball is a game measured over the long haul. It has had eras of pitcher dominance followed up by a decade of hitters taking offense to new levels. In the cycle of baseball this has happened over and over again throughout the years. In the long-term we will eventually see hitters adjust to the defensive shift, the loogy, and to the bigger ballpark just like at one point in time pitchers adjusted to the livelier ball, the move from small ball to the long ball, and the elimination of the spitball. The game always seems to find a way to check and balance itself when taking the long view.
