What is the Point of Playing in the Rain?

[PeteBooth]

No Problem with the rain.

It was nothing like the conditions played years ago between the Montreal Expos and the LA Dodgers.

The problem MLB will face one of these years is Snow. The World Series is scheduled to end I believe on Nov 1st or Oct 31st. (Assuming the full 7 games)

This year the weather in the East has been great, but this is the exception rather than the norm. As we get to middle to late October the weather turns and when you play in NY, Boston Cleveland etc in late October anything can happen.

Look at what happend to the Cleveland home games in early April. Many were cancelled due to snow.

No reason for baseball to last this long.
