MLB Boston-Cleveland Game, 1 Hour 49 Minutes… Shortest Time in 14 Years
Boston Tanner Hauck, 94-pitch shutout… Lively, a former member of Samsung, is also doing well.
In the Major League Baseball (MLB), which officially operates a pitch clock, a high-speed game of ‘1 hour and 49 minutes’ was played.
The Boston Red Sox won 2-0 in 1 hour and 49 minutes in the 2024 MLB Cleveland Guardians home game held at Fenway Park in Boston, Massachusetts, USA on the 18th (Korean time). 카지노사이트
According to MLB.com, it has been about 14 years since the Detroit Tigers-Cleveland Indians (now Guardians) game on June 3, 2010 that a game ended in 1 hour and 40 minutes.
On this day, Boston’s starting pitcher Tanner Hauk led the shortened game time by pitching 9 innings, allowing 3 hits, no walks, and striking out 9, resulting in a shutout.
In particular, he recorded 94 pitches, creating the ‘Maddox pitching’ record.
In MLB, if a pitcher gets a shutout while throwing less than 100 pitches, it is called ‘Maddux pitching’, in reference to legendary pitcher Greg Maddux.
Cleveland’s pitching team also helped shorten the time with a strong relay.
Cleveland starter Ben Lively pitched well, allowing 3 hits, 1 walk, 7 strikeouts, and 2 runs in 5 innings, and also held the two bullpen pitchers who followed without allowing any runs.
Lively is familiar to domestic fans as a player who played for the Samsung Lions in the KBO League from 2019 to 2021.
Meanwhile, MLB reduced the average game time based on 9 innings in the 2023 season, which introduced the pitch clock, by 24 minutes from 3 hours and 4 minutes to 2 hours and 40 minutes.
In MLB, a pitcher must throw the ball within 15 seconds when there are no runners and within 18 seconds when there are runners.
The KBO League is piloting a pitch clock this year and is encouraging players to throw the ball within 18 seconds when there are no runners and within 23 seconds when there are runners.
