Baseball Is Dead Episode 75: Pitch Clock Madness
01:35:42 Share

Spring training finally kicked off this weekend which means we got our first look at the implementation of the pitch clock at the major league level. The reactions to the new rule have been wild after viral videos of games ending on violations made their rounds on the internet. Today we're talking about everything we like about the pitch clock and what we feel needs to be tweaked. We also break down the impact it has had and will continue to make on pace of play and the game of baseball in general. Dallas is on Jared case for putting on a few Lb's and Jayhay thinks he showed up to camp a little chubby after getting breaded up in the offseason. We're also talking the Manny Machado extension, whether the Padres are run by the Saudi's, what Juan Soto's contract might look like, the Orioles and Pirates finishing their game without umpires, Big Tasty and Jared's twitter interactions, and more! Enjoy!
