Discussion: Do we pay to play by the hour??

Bruce,
That would be nice and I remember those days . However, I also remember starting my 5:pm game at midnight as well as tournaments ran behind all the time. I guess what I'm saying is, as long as there are time limits the number of innings doesnt really matter to me. In one of the leagues I play in we get an hour and 10 minutes and can play up to 9 innings. Some games go 9 innings, some 7 and some 5. When I'm done i dont know that I've played more softball in the 9 inning game than the 5 inning game since I played softball for an hour and ten minutes in both games.

Actually I dont play much golf but when I do 18 holes is fine. Perhaps because I get as many strokes in as a normal golfer would get in 36. And actually you make a good point about battling back through the losers bracket. If you had to play 3 hour 7 inning games there wouldn't be that many teams that could make it back.

Again Im not so sure what is so special about 7 innings when the game has already been altered so much. Are you in favor of the 5 run rule because it gets you closer to 7 innings? Would you like to see a rule change to 2 outs an inning to get the magic 7 innings in?

never understood why 7 innings was so important. I think at our age games that last an hour and a half is plenty. especially if you happen to play three or more games. Between batting practice and games we are spending 5-6 hours on the field. That's a good day
