It has been only a few weeks, but the pitch clock already has changed baseball, from the beer stands and bathrooms to the on-deck circle, writes PWSullivan.
It has been only a few weeks, but the pitch clock already has changed baseball, from the beer stands and bathrooms to the on-deck circle.
Conversely, if a pitcher is throwing strikes and dealing, it’s tough for hitters to break that momentum. That always has been the case, but the clock means less time for hitters to regroup if they’re behind early in the count, often leading to poor swings. What I like to call the “Buehrleization of baseball” remains a work in progress. And not everyone can pitch as quickly — or as well — as former Chicago White Sox left-hander Mark Buehrle. But everyone seems to like the pitch clock, even with its unintended consequences.
“I don’t like to put ourselves in that box,” Ross explained. “If you have somebody that feels like they need that label that has earned it, I would definitely do that. I don’t think we have that guy, a Craig Kimbrel or a Mariano Rivera, floating around.” Fulmer posted a two-inning save April 7 against the Texas Rangers. Ross used him Saturday in the traditional closer’s pocket — the ninth inning — and he blew a 1-0 lead against the Los Angeles Dodgers on a two-out, two-run single by David Peralta with first base open.
