MLB's Scheduling


Recommended Posts

I've been pissed ever since they took the tradition away from Cincinnati. If the current owners have proven anything, it is that tradition is meaningless to them,

 

What tradition was that?

Cincinnati was the first professional baseball team, up until the mid-to late1990's or so played the very first game of the year, then baseball saw an opportunity to make more money and sent teams overseas to open the season or would open with the previous years champs on ESPN.

I'm all for the continued globalization of sports and expanding baseball into other markets but I agree, opening day seems kind of like a poor time to do it.
