I barely have time to get the games from work as it is. 640 also interferes with dinnertime the correct time should be 7 pm sharp, not 710 leave work early. stop working so much. enjoy baseball. 6:30 seems optimal. Plenty of time to get there, games over by 9-9:30. Even if you work until 5, that's 90 minutes. Plus so what if you miss the first inning? Better than feeling like you have to miss the 9th to make a train/school the next day. Even people in outer suburbs are home by 10:30, with kids or without, 11+ starts to get crazy. This isn't a club. More frequent mass transit options at 9:30 than 10:30 too.
