PFT CommenterA ground rule double in baseball should count as a home run
I also think that a ground rule double should be a home run. Not the weird one where it gets stuck in the ivy, but just if it bounces over, I think that should count as a home run.
The rule has not been changed; it remains a ground-rule double.

Big CatShortening the MLB season and adding doubleheaders would make the sport better
Anthony Rizzo has said that he thinks we should play less baseball games, which I'm all for... Why don't we just start it later and do doubleheaders? Doubleheaders are such a fun, weird thing in baseball that they don't do enough... I think less baseball would make baseball, I think it'd be an addition by subtraction.
MLB has not significantly shortened its 162-game schedule, though they have experimented with 7-inning doubleheaders in recent years.
