Would it help if we were exposed to more international baseball? Like if MLB Network showed Nippon Professional Baseball or the European Baseball Championship, would that raise interest? Been thinking for a while that MLB network should show some NPBL in the middle of the night/early morning.

Well, this isn't how I expected the game to go... It doesn't help that our governor is cheering for Team USA either.

That was fun. I just wish Ian Kinsler didn't say the stupid shit he said about the "unwritten rules" being the way "we" do things. Baseball would certainly have more interest from younger fans in the US if the self-appointed enforcers of the unwritten rules didn't decide that having fun on the basepaths would be answered with throwing a 90+ mph ball at their bodies.
That's why I root for Bryce Harper even if acts like a douche at times. He wants to inject the fun from Latin American and Asian professional leagues into the stuffy MLB. Younger teams like the Cubs and the Royals also seem like they like to have more fun than the Brian McCanns, Ian Kinslers, and Madison Bumgarners of the world would like.
