Annoying Baseball Playoffs

I'm pretty annoyed at the baseball playoffs and World Series. What's the point of watching when you know you can't see the end of the game?

The games don't end until midnight or later. I have a job and have to get up early for work. There's no way I can stay up to watch the end of the game.

It's typical corporate thinking. There's short-term gain from dragging out the game for 4 hours and padding it with extra commercials. It's alienating potential future fans, when you can't see the entire game.
