Bring back Max, Patkin, Eddie Gaedel, and the occasional "special event" ala Chicago White Sox Disco Demolition Night.

How about no more epic at bats. Batter is out on the fifth strike.

This is better than most of the new rules, I could live with it, but I would like to see stats on how often it happens (I'm guessing not often, maybe a couple times a game.) I have a problem with trying to iron out all the "wrinkles" in the game, and changing the rule here would be one. To me, an epic at-bat starts to get kind of interesting as a battle between the pitcher and batter. As I've said before, just make the batter stay in the box and the pitcher on the mound, and you're knocking twenty minutes off the games. Bag reviews and relief pitchers' warm-ups--haven't they been warming up in the bullpen?--and two-and-a-half hour games will be the norm again as in my youth.
