You think global climate change isn't real?

This is so bizarre!

CLEVELAND -- Major League Baseball, Cleveland Indians and Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim today announced the three-game series between the Indians and Angels, scheduled to be played at Jacobs Field April 10-12, has been moved to Miller Park in Milwaukee, Wis., due to poor playing conditions, player safety concerns, as well as fan comfort issues.

The Cleveland Indians will travel to Milwaukee, Wis., tonight in preparation for the three-game series (April 10-12), and return to Cleveland for a three-game weekend series against the Chicago White Sox that begins at Jacobs Field on Friday, April 13 at 7:05pm.

"Considering the combination of the playing field conditions at Jacobs Field, fan comfort issues and a concern about the integrity of the 162-game schedule, a change of venue for this three-game series is the most logical option," said Indians President PAUL DOLAN. "We would like to thank all involved, Major League Baseball, the ownership groups for both the Angels and Brewers, and the Players Association for their support during this unique situation."

I wonder how many fans will turn out? I wonder when the last time an MLB team did not play in their own stadium? I think Brewers fans are lucky - I'd certainly go to a game in that series if I lived in Milwaukee.

Who was the idiot who scheduled the only series of the year for a team to come to a city where the weather in April is completely unpredictable? MLB has hired morons as schedulers.

UPDATE: From Let's Go Tribe, the Marlins played the Expos at US Cellular Field in 2004.

Also, it appears that tickets for the three game series are $10 for general admission. If you're in the Milwaukee area, go support a medium market team who is getting screwed by the large market Angels, who whined about the "logistical nightmare" it would be for them to switch the games.
