It's October. Do You Know What Time It Is?


Chipper Jones' final game could most likely be on Friday. Why? Because of the new major playoff system, now there's ten instead of eight, what's ironic, is the two AL and NL wild card games are one game-and one game-only.

With that in mind, the Braves' NL wild card game with the defending World champion Cardinals could be the last to see Chipper in action (unless the Braves win, of course). Also the defending AL champion Rangers-who's chance to win the AL west slipped the last week-will play in the first AL wild card game against the O's. The winner of the NL wild card game plays in the NL semifinals against the Nationals beginning Sunday, while the AL wild card winner plays the Yankees on Sunday in the semifinals.
