Maybe Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred was just thinking out loud, but this last brainstorm was nothing but fool’s gold
Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred recently revealed there has been chatter about implementing a “golden at-bat” rule that allows a team to send any hitter to the plate at any moment of the game. • The Commissioner of Baseball seems to have gotten out over his skis.
• If those matchups are artificially obtained rather than organic, how long before we become bored and start referring to them as “tin can at-bats?”Anyway, walking out of the ballpark after filing for West Coast deadlines, I informed the security guy at the media gate that there were still hundreds of Dodger fans celebrating inside the ballpark, two hours or so after the game had ended. His response: “Well, we still have 27 of them,” meaning championships.
• Quiz answer: The Yankees have gone 19 years without winning a World Series , 18 years and 14 years . Otherwise, their fans don’t have that much to complain about. …• The hubbub over college football winners planting the flag on the turf of the losers reached its nadir with a set of skirmishes last weekend, including a brawl in Columbus, Ohio, that had the cops using pepper spray to try to calm things down between Michigan and Ohio State.
