Baseball is UNWATCHABLE???

I didn’t say anything about the game being previously unwatchable, I just think that it’s more entertaining now because everything can happen quicker. I love classic baseball, where there’s less strikeouts and more small ball and base hits. But I don’t think it’s bad for baseball that home run records are getting smashed, or the fact that runs per game is the highest this year that it’s been in almost 20 years. (9.69 runs per 9 innings, the previous highest was 2000 with 10.28 runs per 9)

That post was literally just a rant about how I don’t like it that so many people are saying baseball is unwatchable and that the sport is going down the toilet. I’ve always liked watching baseball, and I always will, but I don’t have any problem with the new style of play, as a fan.
