In response to "We already have that, though. It's just unscheduled. As the video said, starters last 5 2/3 innings on average." by Inigo

The game needs to be fun to watch as much as anything else. And it needs to end before four hours. It seems like the games would be longer with the pitching changes.

Responses:

Part of the way I'd do it is to make sure the starter finished an inning. - Inigo May 24, 06:01 4
- And do they need to warm up yet again after warming up in the bullpen. Four pitches from the mound and lets move on. - Krusty May 24, 06:09
- I think a simple rule change is a pitcher has to face 2 batters unless he's injured. - Will Hunting May 24, 06:04 2
  - (Or his replacement gets like 2 warmup pitches.) -- nm - Ender May 24, 06:27
  - Something like this or what Inigo suggested. I don't want to kill the strategy of the game but I also want to enjoy what I'm watching. - Krusty May 24, 06:10
