IN-GAME MUSING: Home-field advantage?

BY JIM DONALDSON
Journal Sports Writer

DENVER -- Is there a home-field advantage in the World Series?

Not for National League teams, apparently.

Going into Game Three at Coors Field, a total of 299 World Series games had been played in N.L. parks, with each league winning 149 and one game ending in a tie. By comparison, 300 World Series games have been played in A.L. parks, with the home teams holding a decided, 180-118-2 advantage.
