With the implementation of the pitch clock in Major League Baseball, games are moving faster than ever before, and even the concession stands are making changes. Traditionally, most ballparks stop serving alcohol to patrons past the seventh inning in order to avoid over serving customers. The Arizona Diamondbacks, Texas Rangers, Milwaukee Brewers and Minnesota Twins have all made alcohol available through the eighth inning as games have sped up, according to The Associated Press. While most teams stop selling alcohol past the seventh, Major League Baseball does not regulate when teams can sell adult beverages. MLB’s average game time is on pace to be its lowest since the 1984 season.
