There he was, just a-standing on the base.

So, MLB and the MLBPA decided to keep the "ghost runner" aka the "Manfred Man" for the 2022 season. I personally think this is a dumb rule and one of the worst rules in professional sports. It would make more sense if they did what they do in Japan and have the game end in a tie after 12 innings. Why not do this during the regular season only and not the postseason? Thoughts?
