    I could see it happening. NFL and nhl did things to shorten extra time.

    16 inning games do nothing but hurt teams for a week.

    this is far less stupid than the last thread about rule changes, but still pretty stupid

    hockey is an example
    teams would play for the OT option. more extras would occur.

    After 9 Innings they should have a 100M race between the away/home mascots and cheerleaders to determine the winner of the game.

    Love it, but start it in the 12th inning. By then, bullpen is empty. Hockey has 3 on 3 OT, tennis has breakers. Far too many games in MLB. Don't need marathon games.

    Great idea! Every other sport has a variation for over times. Any way we could get rid of the months of May and October. Have the WS done by Sept 30!
