15 to nothing. Home team ahead, No mercy run rule. Home team at bat in 5th inning. Batters are looking for walks and taking pitches because the pitcher cant hit the backstop. You better be expanding that zone. Is it acceptable? Absolutly not. Is it tolerable? I would certainly hope so. This does not apply to any semi-pro or pro game. And yes it does happen there too!!!
You may not be hurrying that game along to conclusion because chances are it should have already been concluded.
