Are these times too early? Too late?
Just right.Originally Posted by jhc2010
I'd prefer they start weeknight games at 7:12.
My only complaint: I want one scheduled double header every year. My best memories of Reds games as a kid were going to double headers.
"He looked like a surfer kid from SoCal," manager Dusty Baker says. "He didn't say much, but you could tell he was cool."
They'd have to charge double ticket price, or clear the stadium after game one. can't lose that revenue, especially as a smaller market team.
I would like to see some of the evening games start at 7.35 and a few of the day games start at 2.10 but overall I like the start times.
Since I work second shift I prefer them playing on the West Coast at 10:00pm.. The only thing I don't like is 12:35 games. I think they should start at either noon or 1..
Arent these pretty standard times across baseball?

Go Heels!!!!!
I wish they started at 8:10. Then i could make it out to more games.
Hardcore fans are late for work.
I don't know how fans would like to be greeted by rush hour when they leave the ballpark around 5 PM. Right now the 12:35 games end at 3:30, just before the traffic downtown begins to get bad.

Kansas City can get away with playing at 2:10 for weekday games because their stadium is in the suburbs and not right downtown. That would never fly in Cincy.
As you can see above there is a lot of variety on Saturday nights. The Reds keep their start time the same at 7:10 PM while many other clubs choose to play earlier in the evening.
Toronto - 12:37, 1:07 and 7:07
WTH ? eh ?
"...kicks and deals, and it's right down Broadway"
and NOBODY in all of MLB starts ON the hour ? why ?
"...kicks and deals, and it's right down Broadway"
Gotta give the talking heads 5-10 minutes to babble before the game starts.
