You are surprised a matchup of two 2017 playoff teams is on national tv? I mean ESPN definitely has it's favorites... Yankees/Red Sox/Cubs/Cardinals/Astros/Dodgers get significant airtime over the rest of the league. Other than opening day where multiple games are aired, teams like Colorado/Arizona/Milwaukee/Toronto/Minnesota, who have been pretty good in recent years are rarely featured. Just an observation. Then why are you surprised the Cubs/Rockies are on national TV tonight?
