Normally this only comes up in the context of Red Sox/Yankees -- nice to see it potentially apply to the central for a change, though a lot could happen at both the #1 and #4 spots over the next 6 weeks.

It's been so long since we've been to the playoffs, I'm not even 100% sure how the playoffs work. If the season ended today, would we be playing the wild card winner? Someone told me that would be true, unless, the wild card winner is from the same division. It seems to me like the fairest scenario would be for us to play the team with the worst record, like Oakland. Can anybody help me with this?

I told my wife a month or so back that if -- knock wood -- we make the playoffs (I can't even talk about the world series), we're finding a way to get to a road playoff game, somewhere, since we now live 2000 miles from Det. Normally that'd mean 'pull for the Mariners', but they're wow-crappy...so go OAK! :) Of course, the series would be the week/weekend of our first wedding anniversary...I haven't sprung that little tidbit on her yet. ;) I was 11 at the time, and my pops was lucky enough to score tix to game 4 of the ’84 world series…one of the most amazing memories of my childhood.

I was offered two tickets for every possible home game. They charge your credit card and then if the game is not played they credit your card. I have two regular season tickets.

Are we eligible to buy seats for every game or only a few of them?

I have the 21 game package and got my playoff ticket order form today.

They are not too bad...considering how momentous this could be. I have the $8 seats for the season. The playoff package I was offered are in the Mezzanine, sec. 219. The range for $40 for ALDS, $80 for ALCS, and $190 for WS. So the grand total is $2450 for 2 tix for 11 possible home games (tiebreaker included). I am very pleased with this package. I was too young for 1984 or even 1987, so I have waited my whole life for this. Only bad thing is I might be getting a job out of state next month. Though, I will make it back for one game in each series. I have the 21 game package and got my playoff ticket order form today. They are not too bad…considering how momentous this could be.

I imagine we've seen the last of $8 seats. Of course, a winning team is worth it. I think our wallets may be the ones getting hit by lightning. :-)
