when i say "pitchers and catchers", i'm not talking about what you think i'm talking

Rule changes: Batters must keep at least one foot in the box throughout an at-bat or it's a strike; with the bases empty, pitchers must not wait more than 12 seconds between pitches (once he has the ball) or it's a ball; no more stepping into a dugout to catch a foul ball; and no more tie games that are suspended because of weather being played over — now, they'll be resumed from the point of stoppage.

I fully approve of these rule changes.  I only hope they're enforced consistently.  Play ball!

Do you want to do some kind of Phillies/ Giants wager this year? I think the phillies are better, but we could still do something.

Eh, i'm more of an A's fan, and i fully expect the Phillies to outwin the Giants.
