I think it's probably a matter of timing for TB at least. By the time they flip the coin, teams already want to be settled in the dugout and ready to hit the field. If they had to do a dugout shuffle, that would take up time and cause that field to run late.
I thought the standard was always home team was in the 3B dugout?
There is no standard............................ so any of you coaches arguing with other coaches one way or the other owe those other coaches an apology next time you see themthat is the standard
Not if your team is in So CalYour kidding right? Watch any MLB games lately? Home team is along 1st base line.
