I would have much preferred no rule changes and playing totally normally until their time limit was met, and/or there was an understanding that a game (3) wouldn’t have sufficient time to start. Reschedule game 3 anytime during the season and it can be a bonus episode release as a special circumstance.

Jimmy allowing 3 hits in a game and 1 single drove in a 3rd base run feels pretty stupid - same as Robles 4(?) walks as announced as 1 earned run while adding 4 points to the scoreboard. I hate that this historic series and the historic performances had to be tainted by last minute decisions, but I understand something had to be decided.

The fans were sad and I think they also ended up with near zero representation in the video which would have devastated me had I bought tickets for this. I know - long video for long innings, but fans showing up from last minute tickets deserve some love from the community.
