HFA changed for Division Series

2-3 instead of 2-2-1 with the lower seed hosting the first two games. That means the team that earned HFA could be down 0-2 before playing a home game. Another stellar decision...

At least there's a good chance it'll go back to normal next year with the season starting earlier.

This comment from the link pretty much sums it up:

"The only thing dumber would be giving home field advantage in the World Series to the league that won the All-Star game."

:lol:

Rarely does MLB make good decisions.

I don't like the format either.

I understand why, but that could be a disadvantage....even though HFA isn't usually that big of a deal.
Basketball is driven by three principles:

1) Movement 2) Application of fundamentals 3) Predictability
