Why is it they have all these "World Series" in the US and they are the only ones who play in them ? Apologies to our resident Canadian's because I know they let you in some of them.

No idea, but at least the teams are starting to have more of an international flavor than when the major leagues started.

I once asked my American Godfather that exact question. He said that when you live in the USA, America is the world
