One of the ESPN reporters (Buster Olney I think) was talking about how a few years back baseball tried to schedule the first couple of weeks in venues where the weather would not be a problem. According to him, teams complained about it and that is why MLB stopped the practice. Can someone share more about what happened? I can't understand why anyone in baseball would not try to avoid the weather problems they had this week.
