Baseball and Bioethics Revisited: The Pitch Clock and Age Discrimination in a Timeless Pastime

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

In this essay, the author reflects on a decade's old essay on baseball and bioethics inspired by a conversation with the late David Thomasma. In a reprise of his earlier paper, Fins worries that modernity has come to baseball with the advent of the pitch clock and that this innovation brings age discrimination to a timeless pastime.
