The game is only 7 innings long to begin with. Why a home run derby? I do not really know, but my guess would be that they cannot really play ball at night at this time. The field conditions seem to not allow it, or at least in some of the fields. Maybe in the future as they build more, that will be changed, but I know games at Gezer Field were recently moved up to 5:00 pm frm 6pm because they were playing into dusk and it was hard to see the ball. Maybe at Yarkon Field it is better, but if they cannot play at night at Gezer, than they need a different solution than extra innings.. I guess the home run derby is that solution.<BR/><BR/>It happens to be similar to soccer where, I think, if they game ends in a tie, they have a penalty kick shootout.<BR/><BR/>I do not know about the bats.Rafi G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00699851287106903971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-17246582238186668952007-06-28T17:56:00.000+03:002007-06-28T17:56:00.000+03:00why not just play till the tie ends? why a HR con...why not just play till the tie ends? why a HR contest?<BR/><BR/>why are they allowed to use anything but wood bats? <BR/><BR/> If this league wants legitimacy from americans, they ought to play by MLB rules.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
