The book focuses on the concern that baseball is losing young fans due to the length of the games. The problem is that the most of the proposed solutions will only shave a few minutes off the game length. Jacoby explains that even reducing the average game time to approximately two hours wouldn't be enough to attract young fans. (Hey, two hours sounds great to me.)
Ironically, it's the timeless quality of baseball that is its greatest asset. New fans will have to learn to embrace that.
