Well, here we are at the American League game. Just like last night, the game will last thirteen innings across five hours, only the score will be 12-11. Everyone will say that it’s better baseball, even though it will be 6-1 for innings 4-6 and we’ll all be really bored.
Half the audience will be rooting for the Rebuildin’ A’s to beat the Mighty Yankees, half will feel aggrieved by the 100-win Yankees having their entire season come down to one game. The aggrieved will get the most airtime before, during, and after the game, regardless of the outcome.
