Pitching in both leagues seems relatively equal, but the AL playoff teams just always seem to have more/better offense. More offensive firepower in the AL I suppose, and NO, that isn't b/c of the DH.

God was the DH in the "Heaven vs. Hell" Baseball Classic. Three run homerun in the 7th inning of Game 6 gave Heaven the series for the third year in a row. Ever since Lucifer's Tommy John surgery two years ago, he's lost some velocity, might have to work a trade for a younger prospect.

Clearly its because the American League had homefield advantage in the last two World Series' thanks to their wins in the All-Star gameThanks a lot Bud another great idea

I guess this is all unnecessary rambling because Hollywood personifies something I hate about most people. He can take valuable knowledge, stare it right in the fucking face and never let a single sentence absorb into his brain.

whoever has the deepest pitching staff will win, the home field advantage does help too. But the Red Sox and White Sox had the best pitching the last two years during the playoffs, that's why they won.

i tried to talk here about that program, the RNG , not to talk about when to accept all in without to see flop.
You can accept all in whenever you want, or whenever you feel lucky, but in virtual room's is not like in reality. In reality anything is possible... in virtual rooms you can be "the one" who knows the future, or who can change the future.

The AL keeps winning simply because the AL has better teams. I am a diehard Braves fan, but even I am not foolish enough to believe that they stand any kind of chance come playoff time.....
