R.A. Dickey Only Pawn in MLB ASG Ratings Game

How hard on hard on Tony LaRussa everyone was. He's a genius. Just read Phil Mushnick today:

Knuckling under TV’s pressure

A Fellow with an extensive career as both a baseball marketing and sports TV exec, made this strong suggestion to me about Tuesday’s All-Star Game:

“Why, in an 8-0 game, was R.A. Dickey ‘saved’ until the bottom of the sixth, especially when he should’ve started?

“Someone tapped [NL manager] Tony LaRussa on the shoulder and said, ‘This game is a blowout. We’ve got to at least try to hold the New York audience.’ ”

Ya think?

“Absolutely.”
