Good insight and I agree. Interleague play makes me sick in the gut. I really feel Bud Selig's weak reign as commissioner has resulted in irreversible damage to the integrity of the game. I don't believe he really knows or understands what makes and made baseball a great game. Without going into details I will just say he has disrespected the game. Concerning interleague games they ruin the integrity of true competition and,, like you said, just muddy the waters. It would be nice to have a commissioner who was a little brighter on the baseball IQ scale than the average Sunday fan who just wants to see home runs. I LOVE the game but feel it is being short sighted in giving up to much of its tradition for a hope for a bump in ratings.
