Not to hijack the thread, but I'm planning on doing the "buy cheap tix" thing on Sunday, too and was planning on just standing in the outfield on that walkway to watch the game. Has anyone done that? And is it worth it or should I just shell out money for seats down the baseline?

If you can handle to stand the entire game you mine as well stand where hte railings are down the base lines

One thing that I thought was bad ass is I had lower level tickets awhile back 10 rows behind first base dugout and there is a bar area/snack area down a tunnel where it used to just be random golf carts and hose or two. It was nice to get out of the sun refil my water bottle and watch the game on the flat screens.

This whole realignment discussion from a week or two ago has sparked a lot of whining that is getting on my nerves.

National League fans: get over yourself. Your form of baseball sucks. You may be afraid of change now because seeing gimps hit every day is all you've ever known, but it is not fun to watch a team walk the number 8 hitter with 2 outs to get that almost-sure 3rd out to escape. Its stupid, in little league its fine because all the kids hit about as well, more or less, but in the major leagues these bums are worthless at the plate. Double switches? That is not rocket-scientist strategy, nor is it remotely interesting. In the 7th inning with a guy at first no out you sub out the pitcher for a pinch-hitter, then when the #4 hitter makes the last out you bring the pitcher in to bat 4th. Ooooh, that is so damned witty and clever, wow! Who ever woulda thunk that one! That manager is a genius!

National League baseball sucks. Moving on... Interleague. Interleague has run its course? Why? Has AFC/NFC play run its course? East/West or whatever the hell the NBA does I'm not sure because I dont watch it, has that run its course? What is so damn distasteful about watching more teams than the same damn 14 teams you see every year? (or more accurately, the same damn 4 teams the vast majority of the time, god unbalanced schedules suck)

There is no good reason to be opposed to interleague, it is stupid and reeks of "I fear change!" old people nonsense.

Move a team from the NL Central to the AL West (or from the NL West then juggle the NL divisions around, whatever) balance the schedules, give everyone in every division the same schedule, and put the designated hitter in both leagues. Or dont, I guess, that last point is not necessary if NL fans want to keep watching gimp lineups, but we need a 2nd wild card, even divisions, and more interleague, not less.

/rant off.

The bullshit that the NL is "pure" baseball is just that: bullshit.

Its not that its all the stupid double switches and other bullshit. We got lucky this past weekend in St. Louis when our pitcher batted late in the game we just put Billy in.

What other fundamental changes has baseball undergone besides the DH? Lowering the pitcher's mound..? Because such changes means baseball is not pure in any form.

I do like the pitchers hitting because it ususally means an out and atleast in my heart that gives the game a chance to go faster. I hate 10-8 softball games with 4 or 5 homeruns. To me the game was ment to be people hitting ball and trying to run their ass of to get to the next base. Not hitting and putting it in caddy mode. I am not real passionate about it either way though, it is always nice to stretch out a dudes career with the DH because his knees are shot.
