Been boycotting ever since they put this in. And they were even finally going to get rid of it, only to pull the rug out from under us!

They’re like church league softball rules made to hurry things up because the teams for the next game are waiting.

zombie runners: Manfred’s legacy

The ghost runner is actually a good thing, especially when my eastern time zone team is playing on the west coast in a night game.

Going to be a lit season because at this early point of the season it already feels like playoff baseball.

Phillies there tho!

Last year I started to embrace the Manfred Man and
now I.... kinda like it.

It’s the WORST.

You LA fan? Tiger fan here. : )

Molly, it’s the worst. I was so glad that when we won in the tenth, it was pretty decisive, because when you win just scoring the ghost runner, it’s really just a tie.

I hate it so much. It messes with the integrity of the game. I’ll take clocks if I have to. But hate the ghost runner.

my dad asked the same thing when we were at the K yesterday in extra innings

Right come on Dodgers

christinahonchell.bsky.social•63 days ago

At one point they were eliminating it, but something happened. Hope it’s still on the table.

I hate the ghost runner! (and I'm no baseball originalist; I actually LIKE the DH)

I've got no problem with it!

I actually like it for the regular season. I know my opinion isn't popular with the Purists; but it adds excitement and prevents 4 hour games in the regular season.

I hate it

cesarsantiago.net•63 days ago

Of all the things that they have changed the past few years, I hate that one the most. And the Good Lord knows I hate the pitching clock with the heat of a thousand suns.

I live two time zones east of my team. Love the ghost runner. Come out come out little ghosties! It’s time for sleep!

maxhorn.bsky.social•63 days ago

I did the same thing during the Dodgers game. Went to the restroom before the top of the tenth and came back and saw a Tiger on second and my immediate thought was, “Damn, a lead off double!” But I quickly remembered and was sad, because I still hate this. Start it in the 12th.

udepeep.bsky.social•63 days ago

I hate it so much. I thought it was because of my age, so I'm glad it isn't just me yelling "get off my lawn!" and that it pisses other people off.
