Scratch the equipment argument, that's why the CR exists for the catcher.
SP guys are lazy and don't hustle anytime it doesn't involve the ball being hit.
As noted, too much extraneous BS between coaches and participants
SP with stealing still takes less than 70 minutes
In three years, ran three NQ's and six JO state tournaments with 90 minute time limit and teams used every bit of it. 30% of the games didn't get in full 7 innings
This could go back and forth forever.
