Major League Baseball announced Monday that outgoing commissioner Bud Selig has discussed improving the pace of baseball games with a new committee that will study the issue and look to make improvements for the 2015 season and beyond.

The chairman of the committee is Braves president John Schuerholz. Incoming commissioner Rob Manfred (currently baseball’s COO), Mets general manager Sandy Alderson and former Yankees manager Joe Torre — now MLB’s executive VP of baseball operations — will be part of the committee, along with union chief Tony Clark, Red Sox chairman Tom Werner and Red Sox partner Michael Gordon.

Selig also said "we have the greatest game in the world, but we are always looking for ways to improve it"

If it is in fact "the greatest game in the world" then there is NO REASON TO CHANGE IT!!! Baseball starts in the spring and ends in October (depending on your team) I personally LOVE going to ball games in this part of the years weather, it gives me a day to relax in the sun for a couple of hours. Possibly more if it goes into extra innings! One thing i don't want is to feel like myself, my family and the game i was raised on are being hustled along, so that baseball higher-ups can give us less game for the money we spend!

Baseball has and still is Americas great past time, lets not let another bunch of corporate, (only ball they have ever touched was a ball point pen) sport vampires suck anymore life out of this game!
