MLB, wanna help speed up the game? Have your hitters make more contact and stop striking out so much.

- There's a lot more dead time in between action than before. Sometimes more than half a minute in between pitches. Twenty to thirty years ago, it was commonplace to see ten to twelve seconds per pitch.
- There are more pitches per plate appearance than before. 3.4 pitches on average, IIRC.
- Over 1/3 of the outcomes are either a homer, walk, or strikeout. The more true outcomes, the less the ball is put in play and the more pitches thrown.
