A Game Shortener that will Make No Difference

 I'm not great at research.

But here is what I sense.  The Yankees always begin games ( the last 10 is my frame of reference) trailing.  I do recall we were down 1-0, even when we won in a romp. 

But against the Pirates, the team looked ( as Duque opined) " dead."

So here is my thought;  The Yankees will concede their first 9 at bats as outs. 

The opposition bats, as normal, but we just stay on the field. 

The logic is;  the first time through the line-up, we aren't going to score anyway.  We probably aren't going to get anyone on base. 

When we do win games, it is because we come from behind. 

 So why not jump start the process?

We can even continue this approach until the other team scores.  So we could go 8 innings with no Yankee getting to the plate. 

The game will be quicker and the outcomes probably don't change much. 

I am so bored watching Yankees flail helplessly during the first three innings.  So what is the point?

Do the rules permit this?
