Effective with this weekend's Astros-Rangers series at Minute Maid Park, fans such as Emilio Granado Jr. can purchase a brew at roughly 40 percent of the ballpark's beer and concession stands through the end of games.A set of new rules, particularly time limits on pitches, has led to the average game being the shortest in MLB since 1984.
It didn’t take long for the Astros’ world-class analytics group to determine that shorter games add up to reduced beer and alcohol sales. The pitch clock at Minute Maid Park, an old-school display similar to the play clock in the NFL and the 24-econd clock in the NBA, stands out in the stadium. Look, I thought this was a promising idea but didn’t imagine it would be this successful. You used to be able to go to the kitchen and fix a sandwich without missing a pitch. Now, such a trip will have you rewinding the DVR to replay an entire inning.
