ive played before and I don't remember running out to the warning track on every hit ball for an out. Being in the outfield was boring asf back in the day. These juiced balls would have made it more fun for me out there

Doesn't matter who goes out there.....you could have a pitching roster of Nolan Ryan Sandy Koufax Randy Johnson in their prime and it wouldn't matter

Yeah, the story was on espn.com today. Pitchers from both teams noticed the difference, and statistically they're hardly getting any swings and misses on their breaking balls compared to what they normally do, because the slickness of the ball make it harder to grip. And obviously there have been quite a few home runs.

That's crazy...after all the cliches about the "integrity" and history of the game.

Yep. It's all about entertainment and bringing in the casual fan. The purity of the game means nothing in sports anymore, hence all the gimmicks and rule changes we see in all the major sports to increase scoring. It's all about the almighty dollar.
