Interleague Game Should Determine Homefield Advantage in World Series
June 30th 2008 20:32
Interleague play has come to a close for another season, with the exception of a July 10 makeup game between the Yankees and Pirates, and once again the American League dominated. They won over 140 games against the National League.
The overcome of the last few weeks and the one interleague series in May should be how they determine homefield advantage in the World Series. They constantly promote how the All-Star Game counts now but everybody knows the 64 participants in the All-Star Game take it as serious as a game in mid-March.
Everybody takes a regular season game serious so Bud Selig should really consider changing the importance of the All-Star Game. The rating for the mid-summer classic will still be high because it's great watching the best players from the first half compete. You get to see matchups between pitchers and hitters that you don't often get to see. It's still talked about when Randy Johnson threw over the head of John Kruk. The All-Star Game will always be special even if it doesn't count.
