I agree. Not sure why you can't take a weekend off, and give the kids 7-10 days of a well deserved break. Gives the regional hosts time to prepare and make the most out of their hosting opportunity, but more than anything, it's as much as a safety mechanism you could build in to help pitchers.
Its already so hot in Omaha as it is, imagine if you pushed the CWS 7-10 days further into the summer?
in other hilarious and useless news, our game against Vandy in the CWS, it was actually chilly that night and I wished I had worn sleeves. The game against Stanford a couple days earlier was pretty dang hot but not unbearable.
you went sleeveless?

ST. LOUIS (AP) St. Louis
Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol believes in the "no shirt, no problem" mantra.
His club was
boosted to a win over the Royals Friday night and again on Saturday by a group of college players in the right-field seats who took off and waved their shirts as they sang, chanted and drew others into the fray.
Marmol loved it so much that he bought tickets for shirtless revelers this weekend.
"Last night's atmosphere was electric. Let's run it back this weekend," Marmol said in
a social media post. "I'll buy tickets for fans who want to sit in the right field Loge and bring the energy."
It all began when the Stephen F. Austin club baseball team, known as the Lumberjacks, was in nearby Alton, Illinois, for the National Club Baseball Division II World Series. The Cardinals offered tickets to the team, and 17 players attended.
