Baseball has time limits, too, and some of the same BS around "working the clock."

Personally, I like tournaments where the umpire's watch is the clock.

It should simply be the umpire's discretion in situations where a team tries to make fast outs to play another inning or delay the game to make the clock run out. Just like soccer and stoppage time, which is at the discretion of the referee.

OMG, one of the worst ideas ever, use antiquity as a basis.
