George Will had an interest take on how the pace of the game has changed over the years. His thinking was that the changes in the strike zone and the umpires interpretation of the zone has had the biggest impact on the pace of the game. As the zone has shrunk, the pace has slowed. His recommendation was to enforce a larger strike zone uniformly across the league.
I don't know if I agree with his thinking but it was an interesting approach to the issue.
