Heading into this past weekend’s series with the Dodgers, the national media had all the clichés ready to go. This was the best of the AL vs. the best of the NL. The east vs. the west. A World Series preview.
I am inherently biased. Having grown up a Yankee fan, I have always been partial to the American League. But that doesn’t change the fact that the American League is much better than the National League and has been for several seasons. The Dodgers have built up an impressive record while beating up on bottom feeders. They are the only team in their division above .
