These guys play way too many regular season games for something like the home field advantage to come down to 1 exhibition game where only a fraction of players play.

On the flip side, lately home field advantage in the world series hasnt meant a damn thing. So it hasnt really mattered too much. The last time I think they even played a game 7 was in 2002 when the Angels beat the Giants.
Best team usually wins the World Series, esepcially over the last 10 years. Only year I can say that I think the better team lost was when Florida beat the Yankees in 2003.
