Dodgers pitchers are handed the Yanks HFA in the world series. How nice of them

The Yankees are getting nowhere near the WS. Don't kid yourself.

Then the NL hasn't gotten it the last 5 yrs.

I didn't say they had. I said that giving it to the Dodgers next would be 5 straight years for the NL. Reds in 2015, Padres in 2016, Marlins in 2017, Nationals in 2018.

 

[soxfan1468927]

You really think this game means something? You buying that garbage? Interleague is played all year long. There is not one logical reason why HFA just does not go to the team with the better record of the 2 who make the WS

It does determine HFA whether it should or shouldn't. So yes it does mean something.

Ah, my bad. Yeah they're gonna have to go to an AL team next I would think. Texas may not get it until they build a new stadium with a retractable roof.

Bud Selig's parting gift.

We really are in a golden age of baseball.

Thanks Kershaw...choke artist in the spot light games. Just a good regular season pitcher.

Are there plans in place to build anything there? I know the stadium can't be more than 25 years old

Nope. We're probably stuck with it for at least another 20 yrs.

It's a fun time to be a fan, and there's more incredible young talent to come.

how dare he pitch poorly in a stupid exhibition game

It would be a stupid exhibition game if Selig hadn't been a complete dumb ass.

It is a nice park. Are there problems with it?

So it looks like the AL will be designated the home team next year even though the game will be at Petco. So maybe they don't care about having the NL host it again in 2019. I would guess the Dodgers would get it then.

It's Texas. The temperature gets over 100 degrees several times throughout the year. They should've built it with a retractable roof.

He's part of the group of kids where scouts will trade the K's for the power. The Rangers Gallo is a lot like him. It's okay to have one of those guys in your lineup. Just not three of em.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

All right, STFU everybody, deGrom is about to pitch

 

[navamind]

well, he does strikeout nearly 30% of the time. hopefully he can cut down on the K's. even if he doesn't, he should still be plenty good.
