Each team will be issues only 1 IBB per game. No more chicken $hit baseball like the Angels played to "win" the World Series. Every person who knows baseball knows that if the Angels actually played "Baseball" and pitched to Barry, the Giants wouldve won the Series without a doubt! I dont pay $40.00 and up to watch my favorite player be walked to first base, I come to watch him swing the bat and play the game!! You can double team Kobe Bryant, or Blitz Tom Brady and even put 3 Defenseman on the ice to stop Crosby, but normally this player can still come through. Unlike in Baseball, the best player in the game can be taken out of the game just as easily!!

As much as I like the idea, pitchers would still walk batters intentionally by throwing the ball well out of the strike zone.  A more fool-proof rule would be:

Any pitcher who throws four consecutive balls in an at-bat without having thrown a strike will be considered to have issued an IBB.  All IBB's are worth two bases.

Are you out of your mind?  If Barry Bonds hadn't cheated throughout his entire career the Giants would have never even made it to the world series.  Maybe if the Giants had closed out game 6 in 2002, you wouldn't be such a whiner and sore loser.  The Angels played great baseball during that series, and anyone who says something different is ignorant.  And from what I remember, the Angels DID pitch to Barry Bonds, and he hit a few homeruns.

Wow, I must have missed something cuz I didnt know that he went to trial and was convited of taking steroids already? You can say all you want about him, he'll still go down as the best left fielder to play the game! No matter how much you hate the guy!

For the past 30 years or so, my father has been ranting each season that if a player is walked, everyone on base should get to advance one base, regardless of whether there's a base 'open.'  It would discourage the IBB when there's runners in scoring position with first open, and would generally lessen the benefit of pitching around good batters.

Wow, jrich - maybe you missed the leaked grand jury testimony where he admitted he took the clear and the cream.  Or, have you conveniently forgotten those little details.  Here's a little memory jogger - flax seed oil.
