Baseball: no more home runs. If it goes out of the park it’s a foul. It will force a much more dynamic infield game and get rid of boring ass pop flys.
Edit: exception for grand slams because that shit is pretty exciting.
I say a home run is an out. Really put the pressure on them.
I would also make it easier to hit, there are a variety of ways to do that. Might have to allow an extra outfielder though. But the idea is to make it less of a pitcher vs hitter game. Make fielding matter, cause that skill ahs really gone down the tubes the last few decades.
Maybe something like you get as many bases as you have runners on base, plus one. Leave it in the game as a universal positive, but make it anticlimactic unless you’ve got guys playing small ball first.
Baseball in general just seems like it’s as close to a “solved game” as you’re going to get in an athletic contest. Analytics were just too powerful for a game so focused on discrete events with limited active participants.
