In a total disregard of the records of each ballclub, as well as wins and losses in head-to-head competition, Major League Baseball will determine home field advantage for an upcoming series between the Brewers and Rockies based on a scheduled that was drafted several months ago, and will play all 4 games at Colorado's Coors Field.

"Home field advantage should be given to the team with the best record, aka the best softball bats - as reviewed here—it shouldn't be decided randomly around a table in some conference room five or six months in advance," said Kyle Platz, a longtime Brewers fan from Poinette, Wisconsin. "Not only does that diminish everything the Brewers have accomplished so far, but to play each and every game in Denver—without even a chance of going back to Milwaukee—is unjustifiable. Home field advantage because it's the Rockies turn? Next (Major League Baseball) will probably stop keeping score as if the players were five-year-olds so they don't hurt anybody's feelings."

An MLB spokesman says they plan on experimenting with other criteria to more fairly determine home field advantage in the future, including best looking uniform, newest stadium, biggest stadium, and city that has the best Mexican restaurants.

Amid reports they've been cheating during a number of home games at Rogers Centre, GM Alex Anthopoulos, manager John Farrell and other Blue Jays officials outright deny that the hidden cameras strategically placed all over the stadium are being used to steal signs.

"The series of tiny, nearly undetectable, high resolution hidden cameras in Rogers Centre in no way indicate that we are attempting to steal the opponent's signs," said Anthopoulos, insisting that most major league ballparks have hidden cameras pointed toward the field of play for security reasons. "We want to keep Rogers Centre as safe as possible. It's not our fault the areas most vulnerable to a security breach include the opposing catcher just as he is giving the pitcher signs, the 3rd base fastpitch bat (most favorite) and the visiting dugout—especially where the other team's manager is sitting."

If the Blue Jays happen to learn another team's signs from seeing them repeatedly on hidden cameras used only as a safety measure, it is merely a coincidence, says manager John Farrell.

"So what if our security staff learned (Red Sox manager) Terry Francona touching the bill of his cap, his ear, his cap again, and then is nose is indicating a hit and run, and passed that information along to me. If some psycho runs out of the stands and attacks him, we can catch the dirtbag on film."

The secret microphones in the visiting dugout, clubhouse and manager's office, as well as the bugged bullpen phone are not used by the Blue Jays to gain any type of competitive advantage either, Farrell added.
