New asterisk category. [View all]

With the dimension of the bases going from 15 square inches to 18 inches does that mean new base stealing records need to have an asterisk.

The size of the base will not decrease the length of the base path. The base-to-base length will remain at 90 feet, but bigger bases will give players a bigger target to hit, especially when a player’s foot is holding the base on defense.

A bit more real estate to avoid the tag.

Those extra inches could mean a big difference in the rate of success for base stealers.

Sarcasm. I think.
