No Labor Day doubleheaders anymore.

[Hy Feiber]

One more tradition down the drain with this modern game.

A victim of all those $200+ million prima donna contracts.

For all these lazy asses that can’t go more than nine innings, unless a phantom runner is on second first thing in the 10th.

T-ball.

Look at the schedule, typical slow Monday.

Bummer.

Just unreal they don't have 15 games on Memorial Day or Labor day....

I am eternally grateful that I was a fan when baseball was baseball.

They were truly the good old days.

As for the slowness of the games, how could anybody be bored sitting through a long sunny day, watching a doubleheader with the 1961 hated New York Yankees, joking around with your buddies?

We were never in a rush to get home, and afterwards, we waited until our Favorite guys came out of the locker room, to get autographs.

Frank Howard, Ken McMullen, Eddie Brinkman, Paul Casanova…

You want to watch this group of scrubs play twice on a Holiday!? I don't. Of course? I haven't watched them since like June anyway, so there's that.

Yep the alternative is to start drinking at 7am an try to decide the best way to kill yourself.

Average length of a 9 inning game in 1961 was 2 hours 34 minutes. From 1952- 1985 it was always between 2:19 and 2:40. It never made it to 3 hours until 2014. In 2021 it went up to a record 3 hours 10 minutes. With the pitch clock it is now back down to 2 hours 40 minutes. I for one am a big fan of the pitch clock.
