I guess it only half counts because they threw the first two pitches.

That's an option

James suggests that eliminating the bulk would remove several seconds, if not more, from each at bat. It makes sense, but it definitely fundamentally changes the game more than any other option

KG Flat Out LOVES It!!!
Now, if they would only adopt all my other rules changes........but, no, that's too much to expect at one time.
This is like your infant son or daughter taking that first baby step -- you love it and make a fuss over it, but you can't WAIT for what comes next.

MAKE IT TWO STRIKES STRIKEOUT AND THREE BALLS FOR A WALK, AND FOULS ON THIRD STRIKE COUNT AS AN OUT.
OH I KNOW, ROCK PAPER SCISSORS BEFORE THE GAME TO SEE WHICH TEAM WINS IN A TIE GAME AT THE END OF NINE.

Now, without the rule the question is how much would it affect the running game.--

But it's so much better to speed up the game by eliminating with a long-standing rule than to require players not to adjust their fucking batting glove between each pitch ... or for pitchers (as you say) to speed up their time between pitches.
I was watching a Mutts game up here last year that was in a rain delay and they were showing a tape of the '69 World Series ... the batter never left the box once he dug in.Obscenity is the last refuge of an inarticulate motherfucker.
