The manager of a team that clinched a playoff spot for the first time in 22 years should be fired because he did a personal favour for a hall of famer? I'm sure every player on the team was in favour of the gesture. Goins and Encarnacion could've ended the inning fairly early. He was 15-7 this season, it's not like today's outcome was precedented.
Also, the only situation that would affect home field advantage would be if they played KC in the ALCS. Still a ways to go for that. They'd have it in the WS no matter what.
Edit: KC won today anyways, it wouldn't have mattered.
