Why the Rangers have home-field advantage in the World Series

In previous years, World Series home-field advantage was determined by the All-Star Game. This season, Major League Baseball is using regular-season records. The Rangers won 90 games, while the Diamondbacks won 84. This format is cleaner and avoids tiebreakers that make determining home-field advantage messy and confusing.
