When the MLB switched two 2 divisions in 1969. Homefield Advantage in the LCS alternated each year. For example in the 1969 LCS the NL West Winners and AL East Winners each had homefield advanatge. In 1970 NL East and AL West winners had homefield advanatge etc. This system was changed to 'seeding based on record' in 1994 when baseball went to four divisions.

However for some odd reason in 1986 the NL West and AL East teams each had homefield advantage despite the fact that these divisions also had homefield advantage in 1985. In 1987 they went back to alternating. Does Anyone know why this happened?

when he was running from 2nd to 3rd and shouted "MINE" making the 3rd baseman miss the ball ~!

I thought this was a classic play and should be up for one of the heads up plays of the year~!

Okay, I've tried to come up with something that can't be looked up too easily - Only 5 active (through 2007) pitchers have won 15 or more games in a season where they pitched for more than one team. Can you name the five?

I need a little help on this. I'm currently working on an article for one of my publishers regarding baseball players that died during their careers, or careers that were cut short due to terminal illness. So far I have Clemente, Munson, Kyle, and Lidle. Any ideas on a few more?

Now that they have Russel Branyan, they do not need Rolen. Branyan has the power that Rolen use to have, and not a half-bad defense. Also, Brendan Ryan proved that he could play 3rd base.

I know I'm probably in the minority but I'm not. The man is nothing but a selfish egotistical jerk who Yankee Management shouldv'e made him grovel before they even bothered talking to him. He showed his true colors by opting out & only came back b/c nobody was going to give in & give him $350 million. All his proclaiming that he loves NY is bogus.

it's upsurd how athletes get paid, many peole are fans of sports just to get out of the house and enjoy a game, now they got to have deeper wallets just to watch overpaid pigs do "FAKE" work, it's all about greed nowadays and the fans are stuck with the dirty stick getting it up the rear every time they pay a ticket that they have to work sooo many hours at work for, don't forget the 140 dollar shoes and the 200 dollar jersey that comes with it too!

Since 1923 (when they won their 1st WS) what is the longest time they have gone without winning a WS?

We all know they have NOT won a WS in the 21st century.

I seriously predict them or the Pittsburgh Pirates to win it! They got some of the best outfielders and some of the best batters.

Is it possible for these two teams to play each other in the World Series? If yes then I see these two great teams going.

Today the new GM of the Angels Reagins traded Orlando Cabrera for John Garland of the White Sox...What do you guys think!? Did we get a fair deal on this move?

My Opinion.......... Is, we didn't, 1st of all "OC" is the best defensive shortstop in the game .986 field precentage and over 100 runs scored and 86 RBI's!! for John Garland I would have taken John Buerlhe maybe.... but Garland? not worth it! What does eveyone think or maybe this indicates more move by the Angels?
