If you are losing by over 10 all the fans get to line up in the 7th inning stretch and kick the owner in the nuts.

If you're losing by 10 all the fans line up to pitch one pitch each.

Personally, I would throw the classic "screwball".

Unearned runner is really good, and I will probably start using that over ghost runner. I hate the concept, but at least I can sympathize with the players, broadcast staff, and stadium workers. They're still robbing me of Keith Hernandez being driven mad by an unscheduled doubleheader! I will, however, have a full fledged massive tantrum if a perfect game ends in an L because of two sac flies in the 10th inning. habeasdorkus fucked around with this message at 16:19 on Feb 14, 2023 |

Cause why wouldn't you want to burn through all the bullpen arms of the team you have a getaway day game against tomorrow

Once a team is up by 10, it's over. The record regular season comeback is 12 runs, it's happened three times, two of which were in the deadball era. Post season record is 8. Managers just aren't going to do what they need to do to even attempt to comeback from that kind of margin outside of extreme win-and-get-in scenarios, so why go through the motions

If they were, they wouldn't be paying the salaries they're paying," Ventura said. Then, looking at Selig, inches away, he said: "It's asinine. These people did not get the wealth they have by being stupid."

Nodoze posted:The extra innings runner and the position player pitching rule are stupid, gently caress Manfred. How about you figure out how to make a baseball correctly first Well that depends, who is the ball being pitched to?

Yeah they know how to make a ball, they just chose to gently caress with it and not tell anyone.
