My family and I bought tickets for a Dodgers playoff game but just found out about an hour ago what time the game will be played because we had to wait on the Yankees to decide whether the first round will be played within seven or eight games.
I don't know why the Yankees have this much power, but somehow their decision to play the first round within eight games trickled down to the Dodger game and now the Dodgers will be playing at 3 p.m. instead of the favorable 6:30 p.m.
Thank you again, east coast for making us adjust to your marvelous three-hour-ahead lifestyle.
Thank you, TBS for showing every single first-round game on your network and forcing the Dodger game to adjust to your T.V. availability.
Thank you, Yankees for deciding not to let the Twins have any day of rest for your personal advantage.
Thank you, MLB for having the west coast games be at an unreasonable hour and not letting us know until the day before so we don't have a chance to schedule school or work days around it.
This must be changed. Another stupid MLB rule.
Mountie sports, but not exclusively.
