The pace of play in Major League Baseball in 2024 may be tighter, while the path to first base will be wider.
MLB announced several modifications to the league’s rules that will take effect next year, including a shorter pitch clock with runners on base, fewer mound visits allowed and a more spacious lane for hitters running to first.
The rules were passed by the Competition Committee — which is comprised of six owners, four players and one umpire — and were voted against by representatives from the Players Association.
