As much as they like to put the Yankees at night, they really can't do that for every game of their series realistically.

Southwest Sider Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 It's really damn rude to keep us all hanging and waiting for the Wild card game finished.

I think it’s funny that MLB thinks the outcome of the play-in game matters. Whether it’s NYY or BOS, the east coast is getting that prime-time night slot. I’d just like to know how much of the Thursday I’m going to end up missing because of work. Second year in a row budget season is going to completely fuck me.

HOFHurt35 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I still don't get how any game involving the Rays would provide more ratings than the Chicago vs Houston Markets, Yes, even for the Yankees. Absolutely no one cares about the Rays. Chicago + Houston > Yankees. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely no one cares about the Rays. Chicago + Houston > Yankees. Hmmm not sure. Yankees brand is almost equal to baseball itself to casuals. I do agree though that Chicago+Houston will get primetime over Tampa vs Boston. When Tampa played Boston in 2013, they got relegated to the day games in the first two games while Oakland and Detroit took the night game. Bit different with a true west coast team but still not convinced as everyone else that Boston would be the night game.

Squirmin' for Yermin Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I have to imagine DraftKings has the information and the game is at 6. Hell, they have the Brewers game at 3 on Friday. I am sure they know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colome's Hat Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Ugh. I have tickets to Dune damnit. The premiere. My friend is in it. And I did this knowing I would suffer. I had banked on it being an afternoon game. I'm also attending with an Astros fan. This could break out in a brawl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Postseason baseball is the friendship-killer. The little death that brings total obliteration. You must face postseason baseball, and let it pass over you and through you. Where the postseason baseball has gone there will be nothing. Only you will remain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Hit Men Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Besides "Draft Kings, MLB's own website lists the Sox as the second game the first three games, and the second AL game the final two. https://www.mlb.com/postseason MLB and the networks already know the schedules, based on the different wild card scenarios, they just aren't announcing them publicly until Tuesday night (for the AL). Sucks more for Astros (and traveling White Sox) fans attempting to go to the game, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
