Welcome Interleague Play.

Welcome back Inter-league Play! I love inter-league play, gives both leagues a chance to square off against each other. Possible World Series or classic historic match-ups get to be played. AL pitchers cringe at the thought of having to bat and NL pitchers celebrate joyfully at not having to bat. There are those who oppose the concept but I love that we have it. NY vs NY, Bos vs. Phil, LA vs. NY, LA vs Anaheim, Chicago vs. Chicago and much more. These are just some of the wonderful match-ups that we get. It only adds to the baseball culture. How can you not love it?

Ones to watch for:

• Chicago Cubs v. Chicago White Sox (Crosstown Classic, Windy City Series, or Red Line Series)
• Cincinnati Reds v. Cleveland Indians (Ohio Cup)
• Los Angeles Dodgers v. Los Angeles Angels (Freeway Series)
• New York Yankees v. New York Mets (Subway Series)
• San Francisco Giants v. Oakland Athletics (Bay Bridge Series or Battle of the Bay Area)
• St. Louis Cardinals v. Kansas City Royals (I-70 Series or Show-Me Series)
• Minnesota Twins v. Milwaukee Brewers
