Major League Baseball in USA+Canada sometimes do stupid things like forcing teams to play 2 matches on the same day, if a previous match was rained out. They call it doubleheader. They start at like 11 AM for the first one, and are still playing at like 1 AM to finish the second one. Baseball even has more absurd rules, such as a winner must be decided in extra innings if score is tied after 9 innings. There is no time limit on an individual match. Imagine if both matches of a double header went to extra inning!!! They could be playing from 11 AM to 6 AM next day!!!

The saddest part is that there are actually some loser souls who sit till the end of second double header past midnight. These are not even real playoff matches or anything. Sometimes they could be meaningless regular season matches in the middle of summer.

And those American baseball guys have the gall to call cricket a pointless activity.

But for the record, I hate Duckworth-Lewis too. Unfortunately like everyone else, I have no constructive proposal to replace this necessary evil.

sweet, rag on baseball :D

i have no problem with double-headers. not sure i know of two games that went from 11 AM until 1 AM, since each one usually lasts like 3-3.5 hours if the game goes 9 innings, 14 hours is a bit much.

anyways, what is wrong with playing extra innings? we americans need to have winners at the end of a sporting event!!!! :D
