Baseball is definitely getting out-shined by Basketball and Football.
The problem is baseball is trying to hard to appeal to people who flat out don't care about it.
All these new rules are absurd. The Buster Posey rule at home plate and now we have the Chase Utley play at second. I think it was the Blue Jays manager who said "what's next we play in skirts".
