Atlanta Braves Holdings, Inc.

Q1 2024 Earnings Conference Call

5/8/2024

spk00: Yeah, I mean, I think obviously the bulk of the rule changes took place last season. So we saw the results of those and have been able to study all of last season as well as the first part of the season. I think that the overwhelming viewpoint from fans, media, players, teams is that the rule changes were successful and have been embraced. And, you know, we're excited to continue with those primarily because, the idea that you're creating a game that is a little bit shorter, a little bit more action inside of that game with some of those changes, including the elimination of the shift, things like that. But, you know, as we've seen some of the small little changes that have taken place from last year to this year, a couple seconds taken off of the pitch clock is one example. I think it's really hard to, correlate those changes to some of the things that you might be seeing, and whether it be our pitchers or others. I think that the sample size is just too small, and we're going to rely a little bit on MLB to do a full study with the Players Association on that. But I think overall, I would tell you the rule changes have been, from our vantage point, fans' vantage point, very successful and have continued to make a great game even better.
