That is a thought that went through my mind. Actually, on Sunday the paranoid conspiracy guy inside me took over and thought, "Gee, what if this is all staged just to prove that there isn't anything 'wrong' with the revenue structure of baseball, and also to jack up enthusiasm here in Minnesota for a new taxpayer-funded ballpark?" Now, I highly doubt that things have been rigged, but I do worry about the repercussions. Later, though. For now, I am just happy and looking forward to the game at 7:19 tonight.
