Does Interleague play make good business sense?

[Miklos]

I believe that it does so by drawing some people into the game who wouldn't otherwise watch it.What do you think?

[Sweetleaf22]

I think its sweet , its oly a few games..you get great series like.................


Bost-Phi,, NYY-NYM,,,,Balt-Tex

[Seanie Mac]

balt/tex and great series don't quite matchup well in a sentence

[point given]

I think the novelty has worn off, and I could take it or leave it at this point. I guess I think they should play each other all season as the other major sports do, but the purists have their heads in the sand. For every Mets/Yankees matchup that get all the attention, we still have to deal with the Royals/Astros type series that nobody gives a darn about. You get both whether you go interleague or not.

Pirate fans need anything we can get for excitement........


any little bit helps......


Det
Tex
Clev
WS

in other words you get tired of losing to the same ol teams..............

I think it does make good business sense. I think they should either eliminate the pitchers hitting at all during interleague games or swap it around where the pitchers hit in American League parks and DH in National League parks.

[Seanie Mac]

only a handful of teams I get excited about as a Phils fan

Boston
NY
Tampa
Minny
Detroit
Texas

maybe Sea if it's here and Griffey is coming in. Last time he was here he was chasing 600 I believe and it was hype here, bought tickets to all 3 games, he had like 2 ABs

and im one of them - i get to watch the royals play Clev or Det every year. So during interleague I like going to watch a team in person I dont normally get to - this weekend the Rockies are in town, was hoping to catch Ubaldo here but they miss him this weekend.
