All star game blur!

I know all the non-baseball fans don't realize this, but Miguel Cabrera is supposed to be playing the line in the ninth inning and winning by one run. Yes, he should have been playing deeper,which would have allowed him to make the play that started all the chaos in the ninth inning. The reason he is playing the line is... YOU PLAY NO DOUBLES IN THE NINTH INNING WINNING BY ONE RUN! Scott Rolen probably makes the play in his sleep, so he should have been playing third base anyway. Just don't let me hear anyone say; well if he wasn't playing the line the game was over. Just say the ball was hit a lot harder and down the line and Cabrera was playing over in his normal position away from the line; then what would you say? Because now a guy is standing on second and then Troy Glaus double scores him.

Since the NL lost this game that "counts" they lost any chance of winning the World Series in my opinion. My reasoning on this, is if the NL plays Boston or Chicago in their home ball park four times... guess what? NO CHANCE of winning the series. The only glimmer of hope would be to play a team from the west or a team that hasn't been to the fall classic before like the Detroit Tigers, but we all know that the Boston Red Sox or Chicago White Sox will be representing the AL.

I think that's proof that most of the players don't give a crap about the home field advantage stuff. They're not really playing the game.
