Start times for baseball games

Forgive me, I don't know much about baseball. I was wondering why games start at odd times, i.e. 5 or 7 or 10 minutes past the hour.

Thanks,
Arthur.

for tv commercials and game setup. "The key to the game is keeping the ball down in the zone" duh proclamations like that

Was just about to post that. More time to talk about the Sox not seeing the ball all that well, lack of execution, and so forth.

Could be worse. Could be 11 minutes worth of slurpy tie-ins!

Mets games always started at 8:05 when I was a kid. And were usually over by 10:30.

But I thought the Mets didn't come into existance until 1962!
