ANOTHER BRILLIANT IDEA TO FIX SOMETHING, THIS TIME BASEBALL

If you’re not a baseball fan, then skip this.  If you are a baseball fan, read the blog post at this link and realize that the day is coming when the rules of baseball will be just as contrived as the rules for every other sport.  A team gets to have a runner on second base to start an inning, just because the game is in extra innings?  Why not just have a shootout if the game is tied at the end of regulation play, like in soccer?  
My Dad used to say that the rules of football have gotten to the point that you have to be a Philadelphia lawyer to be a football referee.  That's what I'm talking about.
