Oh yeah: $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
I must confess I’m a pro-American League bigot—that is,
I love the DH, etc. Yeah, there’s “tradition” and “strategy”
but this yr as I followed the NL playoff games and the World Series games played in NL parks I HATED when the pitcher would come up, spoiling a potential rally (for Rangers in WS, for example). More interleague in ‘13? That also means less
rivalry games in the individual leagues.
I suppose they will still have more than a few Red Sox-Yankees games but adding more NL means less AL. More
no-DH games.
I do kind of want geographical purity and equality (each league having 15 teams, that is) and in some ways it makes sense to have Rangers and Astros in same league. Why not O’s and Nationals? Then again with more interleague play you’ll have more than a few of those games now.
(And one big sin of geographical heresy is in the NFC
East...I’m sorry, DALLAS? In the NFC _EAST_??? :) )
