I once had nosebleed seats for the DBacks in the RF upper deck and was amazed at how good they were.  I could still follow the ball, and I don't have particularly good vision.
It's a great deal.

Da Braves have been winning nearly every close game they play, which I kind of expect to regress, though the past should not impact the future that way.  Timely hitting and really good relief work helps, duh.   Very unexpected by me.

Does everyone hate the Dodgers like they hated the Yankees 20 years ago?

They're really quite something.  Best record (or close) and guys have been hurt, in-n-out of the lineup, stars playing shitty, no-name pitchers getting big innings.
And it just works.
The Dodgers have not played anywhere close to their best, and they're still great.  Do people hate that?

No one hates the Mets, though.  Higher payroll, last place.  You really do get more hate for the outcome, not the process.

Sort of like Barry Bonds.  People don't hate him because he took PEDs.  Sooooo many people took them.  He just happened to be the best player to take them.  Damning.

Yup, I've hated the Dodgers since Garvey played for them in 69

I hated Barry Bonds because of PEDs
