    I don't get it. Best time for families to take the kids out for a game and then enjoy the evening. Why all night games? Heat?

            Maybe MLB knows there is a degenerate gambling problem so they don't schedule early games so we spend time with our families?

              This has been a trend for a few years. I'm just wondering why.

                  I found it Laker...

                  It is due to the tremendous amount of travel post all star break...so they play late afternoon/night games for the first month+ on Saturdays

                  Check in middle/late august...the Saturday DAY games are back...

                    Has nothing to do with that it's too hot in July and August so you do not see many weekend day games on Saturday


                    More of a trend 4 o'clock and on mainly because of TV

                    Golf is not even on the radar with TV ratings

                                                    I think it has something to do with Fox owning the rights to time slots on Saturdays.
