But MLB doesn't care what the "true fans of baseball" want to see. There are 100 times more casual baseball fans that would rather see Yankees v Phillies. Or even 1 of them. If both of them are out, raitings (the most important thing when it comes to anything) go WAAAY down.

They arent all over their yankees junk like that awful announcer Michael Kay. They are balanced. Their job is to want a good game and when someone is pitching as well as Lee theya re going to give him, his props.
