MLB's Refusal To Play WS Games In November Means Six-Game Series & Idiotic Travel Plans

MLB does not want to see World Series games played in November, so even though the 2022 season will start a week late (thanks in large part to the owners' refusal to bargain for the first six weeks of their unnecessary lockout), it will still end on October 5. Cramming in that missing week of games has resulted in some strange and idiotic scheduling.

The Rockies will end the season with six games against the Dodgers in Los Angeles (September 30-October 5).

The Royals close out the season with six games against the Guardians in Cleveland (September 30-October 5).
