Note that the "End" point of Miller Park in Milwaukee is far closer to Chicago where the Cubs - the away team - plays than the "Start" point where the Astros - the home team - plays.
I never knew that the obvious place to move a baseball game that was scheduled for Houston would be to Wisconsin. Aside from the angle that the Houston players should be more focused on their homes and families than being forced to play in games under such circumstances (obviously their minds were elsewhere as they got no hit for 15 straight innings!)
Also, the games over the weekend could have been played in Arlington because the Rangers were out of town until this evening. The last game could have been played this afternoon or have been rescheduled. Putting the games in the backyard of the Cubs (during an away game) is pathetic. Shame on Bud Selig and his incompetent cronies.
Speaking of Milwaukee, interesting and gutsy move firing Yost. I was impressed with the ownership's motivation to win this year at all cost.
Lastly, Pedro pitched poorly and doesn't deserve a start before game 4 of a playoff series (if, BIG IF, they make it)! Loses to Washington are not acceptable, losing the series would be a travesty.
