By my count, the Dodgers and the Dbacks both have 2 9+game road trips.

Fair, right?

Well...

Both of the Dback 10-game road trips were/are against Eastern Time Zone teams:

Wash, ATL, NYM
Pit, Cincy, Philly


The Dodgers? Only one 10-game, and one 9 game, and they are:

Colorado, SF, Arizona
Arizona, San Diego (off day), San Fran


Also - vs AL East
ARZ plays NYY and Red Sox away, Dodgers get both at home.

Not to mention the size of their payroll.

I don't think Bud-Lite sits around saying, "Beat L.A." We'll just to have to do it despite him.

The TV revenue from a 7 game Dodger/Yankees World Series would be off the charts.
