New York Yankees vs. Boston Red Sox London Overseas Tournament crowded
MLB Two overseas tournaments held in London successfully ended, with an average of nearly 60,000 people per game, making MLB's first European overseas tournament look quite successful, and the results of the game are not that important. The Yankees and Red Sox played very casually in both games and the scores were very high. Although it was the regular season of MLB, it seemed more like an exhibition match.
holds overseas competitions in Europe. NBA and NFL have tried it before, and the results are very good, and the box office has repeatedly hit new highs. MLB also went to London this time. MLB Chairman Manfried said that bringing the game to Europe and opening up the European market is the practice of major leagues to adapt to the big trends. However, compared with the NFL and the NBA, baseball events face more problems, and the biggest problem is the venue. "It's easy to switch from a football field to a football field, but it's different."
In fact, this is true. From the match between the Yankees and the Red Sox, it can be seen that this baseball field that has been modified with a football field has many problems, such as the large out-of-bounds area and the distance between the home run walls, which is also one of the reasons for the high score. For these MLB professional baseball players, such a close home run wall, it is easy for a ball to fly out of the wall to cause a home run.
Chairman Manfried also said that MLB players all hope to play in London. It is reported that the major leagues have cancelled the overseas matches in Tokyo next year, with the goal of making way for overseas matches in Europe. This year's base sock battle has greatly aroused the interest of helping fans with the topic of the feud between the two teams, so this trick will be used next year, but the starring actors will be replaced by St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Bears .
