The A's attempted to get around that last year by scheduling more evening games on Saturday, but I don't think that's a better solution., because that punishes the people who actually attend the games. Who wouldn't much prefer going to a day game at the Coliseum than a night game?<BR/><BR/>And the mid-week day games I can understand, too. Most people are at work, so the ratings will be low. And my annoyance is further lowered by the fact that I ended up buying the mid-week day game season ticket package this year, so I won't be missing those games, anyway.Ken Arnesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04329664909361412993noreply@blogger.com
