Currently, America's national pastime NLCS game on FOX is at 4PM ET and 1PM PT while a majority of viewers and fans will be at work or school. This time is the ONLY weekday afternoon game time for Major League Baseball playoffs.  There is a reason a majority of sports events on weekdays are broadcast in the evenings. East Coast fans will be at work, school or driving home from work while West Coast fans will be at work or school. TV ratings for a playoff day game will be extremely low. If the time change is not made, it is going to disrupt the flow of daily life in the United States for fans that want to enjoy the Championship Series of America's pastime.
