WS Home Field Advantage and Midsummer Classic
MSNBC的文章說紅雀是明星賽的最大輸家。
<http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8558132>
用一場表演賽來決定世界大賽的主場優勢，
紅鳥非常可能連兩年成為受害者。
這支隊伍也許努力了一整年而贏得了全聯盟最好的戰績，
But that doesn't count.
決定主場優勢的是一場表演賽，一戰決勝負。
輪流作東的制度一直都被大家接受，
就算要改，以戰績來決定主場優勢，甚至用抽籤的可能都讓人舒服一點。
引用前述Mike Celizic文中的幾段話，
"Pitchers who may be working on two days’ rest, come in for an inning or two.
If they don’t have their best stuff, somebody else can’t have the home
field in October. What does Selig want, for every manager to juggle his
rotation so that every pitcher who may play in the All-Star Game comes into
the break on full rest?"
"The very thought is preposterous. It’s like telling a school kid that his or
her chances of getting a scholarship to college are going to depend on the
average SAT score of the senior class — in another school."
今年也只能無奈接受了，
往後幾年Cards應該還都會是世界大賽的contender，
希望Selig能夠思考一下這個政策。
Quote Selig的說法：
"Are there better ways to do it?" Selig asked, rhetorically. He said that
having the team with the best overall record during the season gain
home-field advantage wasn't practical.
"We can't wait until late September or early October to determine that,
relative to hotels and everything else. That takes months," he said.
Selig admitted the issue was television-sponsorship driven. "But that's not
un-American either," he said. "When football does things that are good for
television - playing games at different times, they're regarded as smart
marketers.
"We do it and they say, 'Hah, they're letting television run it.'"
不採用較佳戰績的球隊獲得主場優勢的原因，
不是因為擔心兩聯盟對手強弱不同而造成不正義，
而是要早一點決定主場優勢方便定飯店？
That's really ridiculous!
