MLB's problem is more complex, you know with different stadium setups, fans involved in plays, it's much more distance to cover... {nm} slappydavid Feb 20, 04:51

No real MLB fans is asking for baseballs embedded with sensors and foul lines/strike zones with lasers. {nm} Antibody Feb 20, 08:58

How do you know? Just speculation or over-generalization. <'are asking'>. (Plural noun - singular verb). {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Feb 20, 09:47

From the lack of written articles/proposals from sports writers and fan sites. {nm} Antibody Feb 20, 10:23

Please identify one formal study to support your claim. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Feb 20, 11:32

Huh, a study on a lack of studies? Uh, the onus is on you if you want to refute the lack of proposals from sportswriters/fans. {nm} Antibody Feb 20, 12:25
