Why yes i do. it is over way too quickly and us fans didn't get much to see of the interleague action.

Well I'm personally not a huge fan of interleague play to begin with so I disagree. American league pitchers don't know how to hit and National league clubs don't usually have a bench guy up to par with the AL designated hitters. Also, like someone said, certain teams have it much easier than others. For example the Braves had to play the Red Sox (1st place) twice, the Tigers (1st place), the Indians (Wild Card leader), and the Twins (last year's division champs). So it should come as no surprise that they went 4-11 during interleague play.
I also think they should adopt the visiting team's rules to give the fans a chance to see the other league's style of play.

No, I think they have it right. It would take away from the excitement of interleague play every year if it was longer and they played everybody in the other league, plus it would take some away from the World Series.
You people want teams to have a series invoving every team from the other league?? It would be way too hard to fit that into the schedule.

i do, the mlb tries to separate the national and the american league too much, as if they were not even playing the same sport. I think they should get rid of the designated hitter, and play about 30-35 interleague games.

I'm thinking they should have a shorter season. Like what they where when the Babe was playing 120 or somewhere in there. If Ruth played 162 games a season Larry Bonds (what his name) would be no where close to the homerun record. ! 30-35 per season sounds good, and have them play all the teams not just one division.

Good Goddess, no. The current 16-19 games per season is too much already.

They should play all the teams. It isn't fair to just play one division because it might be a stronger division than the ones you are fighting for a playoff spot with are playing.
