The other tangential topic covered here regarding the game start times is a far bigger issue than I think most people realize.

Fans lose interest if it goes so late all the time (and it does)
potential fans are lost because of lack of exposure (kids)

I have watched maybe 4 total innings of this World Series, and I consider myself a moderately huge fan of the game. I can't get into it if I know I can't watch but only a few innings each night.

It actually pisses me off.

My son has lost interest completely because these games that he can't see become irrelevant to him.

I think it is incredibly short-sighted of MLB. I understand all their reasons, but no one will ever change my mind on this.
