    Small rant about the TV coverage- why are they using a 2D plane for what a strike is or not? The strike zone is a 3D box that covers the entire plate, not just the front edge. I barely watch baseball, and know that (and confirmed it via MLB rules). Come on analysts, you can do better.
    There are a lot of bigger problems with broadcast games than a strike box. Though it too could go away.

    - too many things on screen during play (score box, stats, etc)
    - analysts talking during the game.
    - ads during play.

    Should be a max of 1 person booth. I'd prefer no booth at all. Score should only be shown on change or at start/end of an inning.

      The Mets have a 3-man booth and it's perfect because they all know how to shut up.

      The problem here is ESPN, full stop. They're terrible at baseball. They are baseball for people who hate baseball.

                • Mets give up 4 homeruns in a postseason game fir the first time.

                  All by Scherzer.

                  But that oblique is fine.

                  • Of all the games today, the Guardians were the only home team to win. They would’ve been the last one to pick in that scenario.

                      Watching the Cardinals blow a ninth inning lead was fun.

                              • Mariners come back from 8-1, tie it in the 8th as Bichette and Springer collide, it's 9-9.
