There are MLB games that start at 7:35PM locally that run until near midnight. No other sport has games that run (routinely) over 4 hours.

Also, the NFL has a 17 week schedule, and the NBA and NHL play half the games MLB does. Fewer games means I'm more tolerant of long games. But when my team plays 10 days in a row, I don't want to stay up till midnight every night watching night games.

It's getting worse and worse for MLB. They must not care if they continue to lose their fans... took my son to Astros/Red Sox game last year and it was rediculous how much time they took between innings. I know they have to pay for advertising, but it was bad, and it was a low scoring closer game than some.

Last night Yankeees what was it 3-1. Should have been 2 1/2 hr.

Give me Greg Maddox on the mound anyday and lets get it over under 2hr.

Thanks
