I do understand that the upper level it is important for college scouts to see what they would be getting but I just have this fear of how it will snowball down to the lower levels. I also agree that the extra flight time of the ball give the batter more time to aim that ball at the pitcher just like it give the pitcher more time to recover, and it would seem to my simple mind that the batter is going to win that war most of the time
IF it could be tested and shown to improve batter averages, increase scoring, and make it more interesting to those other than SB fans and as in such increase exposure and TV time, I would even favor going to 46.
