What in the world were they thinking of in the first place? 21 square feet isn't enough? Enough 3rd basemen aren't being taken out?

I told my board that they would have to change it back in order to continue to substantiate their recent rules/regs changes (for "safety's sake"). Making the batter's box bigger only made things more unsafe by taking away the pitchers best weapon...the inside pitch. That's the difference between hitting the ball off the taper of the bat and hitting the ball on most bats sweet spot.
