Corrections

In yesterday’s column, Making Baseball Games Shorter, I wrote that the average length of baseball games this season was around 2:45.  Recently, Major League Baseball announced that the actual average of games currently is 2 hours, 51 minutes.

Also, in my preview of the College World Series, I stated that Georgia did not have any draft picks in the MLB First Year Player Draft.  This seemed really farfetched at the time, but I did not see any Georgia players picked.  I now know that this is not true.  Below are the list of players from the University of Georgia who were selected in this year’s draft:

SS James Beckham - Chicago White Sox

RHP Joshua Fields - Seattle Mariners

RHP Trevor Holder - Florida Marlins

RHP Stephen Dodson - Colorado Rockies

LHP Nathan Moreau - Baltimore Orioles

3B Ryan Peisel - Colorado Rockies

Congratulations to them on getting drafted.  MCS apologizes for the mistakes.
