Apparently, the rules implemented by Major League Baseball before the 2023 season don't apply in the World Series. Actually, they do apply but this game logged in at three hours and 16 minutes. The Yankees finally got a win in Game 4 as Aaron Judge got a hit and contributed to the Yanks 11-4 win over the Dodgers. Judge is still below the Mendoza line hitting a "whopping" .152 for the series.
The boredom factor is a metric I came up with to count the number of times a batter came to the plate and failed to put the ball in play. There were a combined 12 strikeouts, nine walks and a hit batsman. There were also 9 pitching changes where a national TV audience watched commercials and Yankee Fans sat around waiting for the game to continue.
The Dodgers now lead the Yankees three games to one.
