Bud Selig ought to be ashamed and run out of baseball for this mess.
It is unforgivable what he and cohorts did to the integrity of baseball (statistics and history).
And just for big bucks to invigorate the game.

The price is robbing the game of the big moment - like when somebody hits 600 home runs. People aren't sure whether to celebrate it.
