MLB to Unveil Pitch Clock Rule Adjustments Before Opening Day
TL;DR Summary
Major League Baseball is set to announce "significant" timing adjustments to its new pitch clock, based on input from players, eight days before opening day. The pitch clock was set at 15 seconds with no runners and 20 seconds with runners. MLB is also limiting pickoff attempts and requiring two infielders to be on either side of second and all infielders to be within the outer boundary of the infield when the pitcher is on the rubber. Further adjustments may be made during the season.
