(Not quite the) Final Regular Season Game of the 2008 MLB season - Detroit Tigers @ Chicago White Sox
Live on ESPN2 HD, from Cellular Field, Chicago, IL
2pm ET
720p & DD5.1 simulated with Circle Surround

From MLB.com

The 87-74 Chicago White Sox, trailing the 88-74 Minnesota Twins by a half-game in the American League Central Division, must play a makeup game on Monday caused by the remnants of Hurricane Ike earlier in September. Chicago will play host to the Detroit Tigers in U.S. Cellular Field at 2:05 p.m. ET to flush out its 162-game schedule.

- If the Sox lose, the Twins win the Central and open against the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field in an AL Division Series on Thursday.

- If the White Sox win Monday, there will be game 163 -- a one-game tiebreaker for all the marbles -- against the Twins on Tuesday in Chicago. Both teams won at home on what was supposed to be the final day of the regular season Sunday -- the White Sox defeating the Indians and Twins upending the Royals.

It Sox lose it will be the final regular season game. 1 game tie-breaker games are part of the regulars season

It'll either be:

"Like I said...."

or

"The Final, final game....."

I really hope the White Sox lose. And its not only because Im a huge Tiger fan.

Its because Ozzie Guillen is a prick, and a disgrace to the game.

I wanna see him whine like a baby and berate his players like the classless individual that he is :D

They'll play this until it's over - rain or no rain (unless they get a lightning strike close by or it really starts raining heavily).

Can you imagine all the schedule foul-ups if the game today (or tomorrow, if the ChiSox win today) gets rained out and can't be played for a few days!! :D:D:D

Or MLB does what it's seems to do now, play the game in Milwaukee. :D

Watching on WGN and the game looks good. Sounds good except there's this annoying bird in my speakers.
