Men NCAA approves SEC request to pilot two experimental baseball rules for the 2024 season

[huskymedic]

-> The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel approved two experimental baseball rules for the 2024 season requested by the SEC. The first requires batters to be in the batter's box and alert to the pitcher with eight seconds remaining on the 20-second visible action clock for SEC games only. The other permits a pitcher or relief pitcher an unlimited number of warmup pitches during the time between innings (120 seconds) or during a pitching change (150 seconds). The rules would be in place for SEC games only, through PROP members indicated that if other conferences would like to use these two specific experimental rules in conference games, the requests would be met favorably.

Both rules make sense. Just have everyone do it. Pitch counts during in between time seem silly.

When does AI start calling balls and strikes. That is the change I want to see.
