Aside from starting the damn season in the winter the last couple of year, it is weird. Thankfully the winter was real short/non-existent so there isn't snow in Cleveland, Detroit, New York, etc. like the last two years lol. If the MLB is going to be so completely averse to playing double headers, day time dames, etc. then they need to cut down the damn schedule to 148 games or so rather than keep stretching out the 162 game schedule more and more to the point where it starts the first week of April and ends in freaking November. God I hate the people in charge of baseball. Remember when Bud Selig said he was going to retire TWO contracts ago? Didn't retire, signed another contract saying this was it. Didn't retire this offseason and signed another new contract. God I hate Bud Selig. Baseball needs a Roger Goddell type commissioner who will try and actually improve the game and stay up technology rather than adapt five year after they should have.
Fun fact: you can't upload anything related to MLB games to Youtube. Sweet clip of a diving catch? Blocked. Clip of that legendary hit from that big game in the past? Blocked. Meanwhile, the NHL, NBA and NFL allow their fans tons of freedoms with uploading clips and highlights to the internet and the game is better for it.
Fun fat #2: Bud Selig makes $22 MILLION DOLLARS to not adapt the game to the modern age, to not take on the steroid crisis for years. He makes twice as much money as Goodell who actually tries and league his league into the future rather than into the past, dragging his heels the entire way.

After watching about six innings of this game I am almost about to take back what I said about the Miami stadium. The green walls are really starting to irritate me. The green is way too green. It is like looking at a green screen or the grass. Aside from that though, ballin' stadium. AND!! Marlins fans actually showed up enough to make the attendance not embarrassing!
Until their game on Friday which will be super empty like always.
