    Are baseball games too long? Jason Gay makes a case for accelerating the beloved but dawdling game.http://on.wsj.com/2tJ900v

        What's the rush? Got work to do? Bills to pay? Sit down. Drink a beer. Let's play two.

        Yes they are too long. Seven innings would be perfect.

        Not allowing hitters to leave the box, instituting a 15 sec pitch clock & electronic strike zone would cut game time significantly.

        Baseball is too long but people sit through an NFL game saturated in commercialization and a never ending supply of rules for 3.5 hours

        Plus baseball is meant to be enjoyed on a lazy summers day, not rushed

        I love the game, and more than any other team sport, but it is time to shorten it. By the way, NFL/NFC Football deserves a quicker pace too.

        I love the game as it is, a mixture of athleticism and strategy.

        Six four out innings would make it interesting.

        This suggestion is the equivalent of the "8 Minute Ab" routine that gets beaten by the guy who comes up with the "7 Minute Ab" routine.

        NO. They are not too long. They are no longer than football or basketball games.
