hate to break it to you, but the rumor is the Cubs are on the agenda next time. And I highly doubt it would be against the Sox.
my guess is at least for awhile, they put a midwest team up against a west coast or east coast team , the midwest team giving up a home game for the lions share of tickets as it does take away a significant amount of home ticket revenue.
my guess is over the next few years you see the Cubs, Cards, Royals, Brewers and Twins all getting a chance to host a home game there. after that, all teams are game.
The game will sell out, its simply how much is MLB willing to charge for the seats and will they make the place any larger. Seems like first base side of the park could easily be expanded to add 5000-6000 more seats, without taking away the small minor league AA/AAA type park feel it enjoys right now.
MLB needs to do more "gimmicky" games like this , in obscure parts of the country , on national TV . Bring the game to small towns, figure out some local angle, and play. Didnt they play a real game (or was it just an exhibition, in Williamsport a few years back during the Little League World Series?
