I understand it is a difficult task especially with inter league. For the love of god though in the super computer golden age can we not have the Cubs and Sox in town at the same time? Same hour? Even on opening weeks?

Why not? The Sox playing at the same time as the Cubs' home opener is kind of a dick move, though. They could have played at night.

There can't be more than 3,000 people at the Sox game.

I believe they are doing this because of the weather. Warmer, relatively speaking, during the day.

Jessie Rogers said there's talk of possibly moving the Wednesday game to tomorrow night because of the forecast. He would be surprised if they did though because Pirates are in division and come here enough, but Cubs want to do everything possible to avoid another "XX games in XX days" situation again.

Move it then. You have the built in day off for the first home series for this exact reason.

The Cubs probably requested it so they could have a bigger TV audience.

How does this negatively impact you as a baseball fan?

No, I'm just wondering how the Cubs being on at the same time affects your Sox game viewership?
