As MLB gets used to implementing a pitch clock this spring, many players, coaches and fans are debating whether the new rule is good or bad for the game. One of the league’s biggest and brightest stars appears to be in favor of the clock.
Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge commented on the pitch clock, saying that it should be “a good thing for everybody.” In fact, he went as far as to compare it to a clock that a different sport is using.
“When they brought the shot clock into basketball all those years ago, they had to learn to adjust,” Judge said, via MLB.com’s Bryan Hoch. “You couldn’t just sit around and dribble and run motion for five minutes.”
