Yeah, Doc; most sports are open to changes to improve their games, but baseball remains stuck in the 19th century in large part. Dig up Ned Hanlon and John McGraw, revivify them, slap on a uniform, set them in the dugout and they wouldn't miss a beat. For example, as minimal a change as having one "designated hitter" remains unacceptable to one of the leagues, while football got rid of the two-way player concept over 50 years ago. Even a modest step such as a 6-man batting order would probably send them into convulsions.
