Sully Baseball Daily Podcast – July 17, 2013
Here is the All Star Game edition of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast!
Who could POSSIBLY have a problem with how Jim Leyland handled Mariano Rivera in the All Star Game or Rivera winning the MVP? Evidently some people DID.
Paul Goldschmidt, Matt Harvey, Prince Fielder and MVP Mariano Rivera all owned baseball on July 16, 2013.

Who Owned Baseball Yesterday (July16th) – Updated Yearly “WOB” Standings
It is an ALL STAR GAME edition of Who Owned Baseball!
MVP Mariano Rivera pitched a perfect inning and had the entire stage to himself, giving the All Star Game its lasting memory for the night.
Prince Fielder legged out a triple in the 9th inning that delighted the crowd and probably gave his manager a heart attack.
Matt Harvey started the game and let the first two runners on. Then he bore down and retired the next 6 All Stars he faced.
And Paul Goldschmidt hit the National League’s lone extra base hit that gave the senior circuit some life in the 9th inning.
They all owned the All Star Game last night.

Talking with my better half yesterday (and she is not a hardcore but casual baseball fan), she asked me a little bit more about the ALL – Star Game. I eventually went onto telling her about how the winning team receives home field advantage in the World Series.
I have done some digging. The results are in.
I may make an argument that winning the ALL – Star Game might actually be a bad thing. Not so much for hosting Game #7, because there has only been one Game #7 since its implementation, however that the fans of the winning club in the ALL – Star Game – have actually seen less home games in the last 10 years. The odds actually point to the winning team playing less games in the Series.
Since the implementation of the “This Game Will mean something again?” there have been 10 World Series played.
