Unintended effect of the new pitch clock rule is that baseball games are flying by faster which means less beer and alcohol sales. As you may know, beer and alcohol sales are a tremendous money maker for ballparks.
Previously, beer sales were suspended after the 7th inning, the reason given is to create time separation between the point where someone has their last beer and the point where they are driving home after the game.
Four teams--the Diamondbacks, the Twins, the Brewers, and the Rangers have changed their ballpark rules and will now serve beer through the end of the 8th inning.
Looks like the almighty dollar has won out over common sense.
