Yeah, same. Was it a rules change that allowed catchers to appeal to the baseline umpire? Or some other league office directive?

Live look at today's MLB hitters gathering outside MLB headquarters.

brother, that's a swing. wtf was going on in the 60s?

We played by the "I DIDN'T BREAK MY WRISTS!!!" rule in wiffleball in our neighborhood. Pretty sure we learned it from our Dads. I was shocked when this wasn't the same rule in the Hot Stove League.

Wow, those were not called swinging strikes? Is that how it was in those days?

"Didn't go"

"what if we made the 1960s even more pitcher friendly" is a thought that absolutely breaks me

WTF. I didn’t even know that’s how things were back then

The second time, Sandy's like "oh FFS..."

And if he’d played on the Sabbath.

Looks like he checked his swing to me.
