As the pitch clock prepares for its postseason debut, the MLB made the decision Friday to utilize neutral clock operators for all playoff games this year, according to a report by the Associated Press.
The league apparently evaluated clock operators from all 30 teams throughout the season and will choose up to the best dozen to work postseason games which are set to begin Oct. 3.
However, a postseason operator won't be allowed to work a game involving the team they worked for during the regular season.
Each series will have the same operator for every game throughout the series.
