As long as they hold it true for everyone then I'm okay with it but it also means you have to do away with all the other stuff that every team does. The rumor is that the misconduct rule is being added on video review because of Beck and a few others' actions that were named in the meeting. The other team could request they look at the video and eject the player for actions that may have not been seen live by the umpires. If they are going to do all this stuff why not have the balls and strikes questionable by review.

Because then they couldn’t get away with ringing up those new-money guys in orange on balls down at the ankles.

It’s stupid and seems like just making up crap as you go.
I hate it too.
It’s like saying you have to count 5 Mississippi before you can rush the QB in OT!

And MLB is suppose to be banning the defensive shift next year also. I bet batting averages will skyrocket. One thing I am going to like next season is a more balanced schedule. Every team will get to play each other next season.

  • 1901 - Christy Mathewson of the New York Giants pitched his first of two career no-hitters, beating the St. Louis Cardinals 5-0.

  • 1969 - Cincinnati's Lee May hit four home runs in a doubleheader split with the Atlanta Braves. May had two home runs and drove in five runs in both games as the Reds lost the opener 9-8 but came back to win the second game, 10-4.

  • 1973 - Nolan Ryan of the California Angels struck out seventeen batters and threw his second no-hitter of the year, beating Detroit 6-0.

  • 1980 - Johnny Bench broke Yogi Berra's record for home runs by a catcher as the Cincinnati Reds beat the Montreal Expos 12-7. Bench hit his 314th homer as a catcher off David Palmer. Bench had thirty-three home runs while playing other positions.

  • 1990 - Chicago's Bobby Thigpen became quickest to reach thirty saves in a season as the White Sox beat New York 8-5.

  • 1997 - The San Francisco Giants scored thirteen runs to set a modern National League record for runs in a seventh inning en route to a 16-2 rout of the San Diego Padres. The Giants set the National League record for the most runs in a seventh inning since 1900.

  • 1999 - After 22 1/2 years in the dreary Kingdome, Seattle finally played a home game outdoors, moving into a $517.6 million ballpark with a retractable roof. Jose Mesa wasted a ninth-inning lead by walking four batters and the Mariners lost 3-2 to the San Diego Padres in Safeco Field's opener.
