Softball used to be a simple 7 inning game. We started putting limits on how many batters can bat in an inning. Then we said, lets start with a 1 & 1 count, with one foul to hit after 2 strikes. Then that became no fouls after two strikes allowed. Then it became no inning starts after 70 minutes. Then that wasn't good enough so drop dead games started. Trouble is no one knew if that was the game ending score or do we go back to the score at the last full inning. Then teams wanted to take the run or batter limit off when the "proclaimed" last inning of the game was happening.
Life used to be so much easier. Everything is so time sensitive now..time..time..time.
