Start times for ALCS Games 1 and 2

As per RAB, Friday and Saturday night’s ALCS Game 1 and 2 will each start at 7:37pm.

Oddly enough, I kind of liked the slightly earlier start times in the ALDS. Even though 6:07pm interfered with a number of fans’ abilities to get out of work to catch the first pitch, it was also nice to have the games conclude by a reasonable time given the four-hour-plus length of Yankee postseason contests.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m the last person to complain about a long baseball game, but the commercial breaks on these national telecasts are a solid minute if not longer than those of the regular season YES broadcast, which amounts to at least an extra half-hour of wasted time if not more.
