Mr. Showtime Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 Peter Gammons wrote the following: The Commissioner's Office decreed that no clubhouse or dugout can have television monitors because of the Seattle protest about the Red Sox having a flat screen TV in the bullpen. Incidentally, when the ban was instituted, the Red Sox had a better record, higher batting average, more home runs per game and .7 more runs a game without the TV on in the 'pen. Excuses, excuses.

Barry Bonds has a huge tv in his locker, I've given up trying to understand the rules baseball makes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSteve Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 I wonder what they are going to do with all those tv's. I could sure use a new tv to replace the 18 incher in my dorm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLB is n ot going to dictate whether a team can have a TV in the clubhouse if all the guys want to watch Trading Spaces! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Lopez Ghost (old) Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 Yes but now you are allowed to use Flat screen TV's for BP. As long as they're not made out of aluminum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
