First it was free agency that started the decline of baseball,then that wasn’t enough so the owners then started tearing down classic ballparks replacing them with shitholes, that was when I really began to start hating baseball, and when they ruined the game.free agency I could tolerate,Not that,incredibly even that wasn’t enough for them though So they then had had to start that asinine three way wild card division race.that was when I stopped tuning into World Series games yearly as I always did.
Baseball was the last sport that did it right where the winners of the division moves on,everyone else that finished second or worse stays home,there was no reward for the teams that finished second as there is now
A great sport has so much been ruined by the owners and players over the years. Well the final nail in the coffin for them now has come full circle. This has been talked about for a long time now but since they never did it,I never thought they would actually go through with it,they are now saying that it was planned this year for the national league to start having the Dh in their league as well.
Go to google and type in USA today the dh and you will see what I mean. I always thought that they would have all leagues eventually have all the pitchers bat in each league if they ever decided to change it.i don’t like that either,I never wanted to see that happen either.i have always liked the DH myself but I like how it has always been since 1973 with one league having it but the other doesn’t sticking to the traditional way it was invented.
I always thought if they did make the change,the Dh would go from both leagues.like I said,I would not have not liked that either since I do like the Dh but if both leagues had to be the same way,I could live with it because without the Dh,the manager has so many more complicated decisions to make if the game is tied and has to go into extra innings.you have both leagues have the Dh,you lose that enjoyment
you watch these old World Series games where the alternated each year with the dh,the years they did not have it,even the announcers would say the same thing,that that’s why they were not in favor of the dh because with games tied in late innings,when the pitcher was due up,they had to make a major decision that would affect the outcome of the game to leave the pitcher in to hit,or lift him for a pinch hitter, now since it looks like the dh will be in both leagues now we will lose that and not to get to see those decisions anymore.
baseball has been postponed this year because of the virus,if it never returned again,I would be all for that same goes for the nfl of course, no need to explain that one.lol
