“It’s brutal. I can’t stand playing a 9 inning game in 4 hours. It’s not baseball. I don’t even know how to describe it. If I was a fan, why would I want to come watch people sitting around and talking, back and forth going to the mound, 2-0 sliders in the dirt? Four hour games can’t be fun for a fan either.”
-Mark Teixeira on the length of Sox Yankees games.
Mark, as a long time Sox and baseball fan….don’t worry about us. I love every single minute of a baseball game. I watched every at bat last night and was not annoyed or bored in the slightest. Sox/Yanks games are 4 hours long, but they are epic battles between the 2 best teams in the AL. I wouldn’t be anywhere else. Heck, I live 3 hours away and often drive in for the games….and trust me, Mark, it is well worth it.
Also, Mark….what do you have against 2-0 sliders in the dirt??
