I agree to be honest. Knowing what pitch is coming does give a slight advantage but man it is just really damn hard to hit a baseball at that level. Plus we had just as good of a hitting record, if not better some seasons, on the road compared to at home. So I'm not entirely convinced of how much it helped us in the first place

You went 3-6 on the road in the playoffs that season. How is that not convincing? I know you're a fan, but read the whole report and try to be unbiased.
