Major League Baseball’s rules committee has approved a ban on home plate collisions in a bid to improve player safety.
The change, announced at MLB’s winter meetings in Orlando, Florida, could take effect as early as next season if the Major League Players Association okays it. Otherwise, MLB can unilaterally enforce the change in 2015. MLB vice president of baseball operations and New York Mets general manager Sandy Alderson said several issues had prompted the change. Exact details of a rule governing the actions of base runners and catchers have yet to be worked out.
