Baseball to Produce Productivity Drop on the East Coast?

October 6, 2005

Managers and bosses up and down the East Coast should be on the lookout for a decline in productivity among the baseball fans who may be coming to work today in a sleep-deprived state.

The situation could be particularly noticeable in the New York metropolitan area.

The reason: last night's American League Division Series game between the New York Yankees and the Angels in Anaheim, Calif., got started at approximately 10 p.m. on the East Coast. Given the three hours it generally takes to play a Major League game, and simple math tells us that many fans were awake until about 1 a.m. this morning as they watched the Yankees lose on the West Coast.

The solution: plenty of coffee throughout the morning, and hoping for productivity to pick up after lunch.
