Not all games have a time limit though. HS Varsity games go 7 innings, whether that takes 3 hours or 1 hour. So, in that context it makes a lot of sense. Also, Dixie tournaments go a certain number of innings depending on the age group involved, so once again it would make sense in that context. However, what Mike was trying to indicate was that no one benefits from a "decreased" strike zone, least of all the umpire who is allegedly shrinking it.
