Sure. But it affects baseball differently because the game has no clock and can be delayed by weather. Saturday night the game in Philadelphia was delayed over an hour so they started well after 9 pm local time and ended well after midnight. The late starting time is determined by tv, as is the entire postseason schedule because Fox has both football and the world series. Everybody loses except the greedheads running things.
