Since when can the batter not call time?

 

[chuckiepoo]

This ump at home is a trashbag.

Rule change bites Cal in the arse…

 

[CAVPUT]

These rules are getting out of hand. Absolute horse shi*

Which ones?

 

[MAD]

These rules are getting out of hand. Absolute horse shi*

Why are they trying so hard to speed up the game?

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

I still don’t know wtf that thing is

An idiot.

 

[VolPack22]

Since when can the batter not call time?

Since Tennessee won 57 games in a season.

 

[SGMVols]

This ump at home is a trashbag.

The new rule is if there’s less than 10 seconds on the pitch clock the ump is not supposed to grant hitters a timeout for purely strategic reasons.

Our players are going to have to adjust to that.

 

[chuckiepoo]

Since when can the batter not call time?

Under ten seconds on the pitch clock.

 

[Baulder]

Trash rule trying to appeal to non-baseball fans, but the guys have to learn they can ask for time but not assume they will get it.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Why are they trying so hard to speed up the game?

Umps are ready to go to "Crackle Barrel" for supper.

 

[CAVPUT]

Under ten seconds on the pitch clock.

A pitch clock? In baseball? I know I'm old but WTH?

 

[RAVOL]

Batters have to adjust it will take some time when your whole career playing is getting timeout. 1-0 Big Orange. In CHRIST Alone

 

[Volstylexx]

Why are they trying so hard to speed up the game?

because "baseball games were taking too long." Like, who cares. Why mess with our sport?! I don't mind watching a 4 hour game.

 

[VolPack22]

Umps are ready to go to "Crackle Barrel" for supper.

So they can crack jokes around the barrel about how they got Tennessee.

 

[chuckiepoo]

Umps are ready to go to "Crackle Barrel" for supper.

I’m in on that!

 

[TheBigOne10]

Filth from Burns!

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Burns is doing some cooking today on the TN mound.

 

[MAD]

Umps are ready to go to "Crackle Barrel" for supper.

You have had a bunch of winner responses today

 

[ButchPlz]

Quick and easy half.

There is a cigar bar three blocks from my place. And I am a mile and a half from Little Havana where you can watch them roll.

Sounds enjoyable. I grew up working the tobacco fields of upper East Tennessee. I’ve always had an appreciation for the many hours of work that goes into producing a good leaf. Every cigar made is then a skilled work of art.

Wait till you see the big leagues this spring. All stupid, to me...and get off my lawn.

 

[VolGirl81]

I’m jealous of you guys living in warmth! Its 38 and on/off sleet all day. I want Thursday’s weather back-83°! Looks like a cool day for baseball in k-ville
