Top 10 Things You Would Change if You Were Commissioner of Major League Baseball 10. Accused steroid users, are required to do 100 pushups and then take a bong hit before going to bat. 9.

Use the electronic strike zone to call balls and strikes (like cyclops in tennis) and use the home plate umpire just like the other 3. 7. Change the gaame to 7 innings.

Shorten the season by about 20 games and a months' time with 2 weeks lopped off at the beginning and 2 weeks off at the end of the season. 4. Topless Tuesdays 3.
