he 2023 MLB season introduced a 15-second pitch clock with bases empty and 20 seconds with runners on, aiming to reduce game length. Critics, however, believe that pitch clocks disrupt the natural flow of the game, especially in high-pressure moments, potentially affecting pitchers’ concentration and strategy. While the changes have led to quicker games, the debate continues on whether they compromise baseball’s traditional, methodical nature.
