It’s been an action packed post-season, and we’ve finally made it to the World Series. The reigning champs Philadelphia Phillies return to the big game to take on the New York Yankees. Game One kicks off tonight in New York.

First Lady Michelle Obama, Dr. Jill Biden, and other dignitaries and elected officials will attend tonight’s game in support of returning veterans and their families. Due to their attendance, security will be increased in and around Yankee Stadium. Fans entering the ballpark will be required to pass through security which will cause delays in getting to their seats. Gates will open at 5:00PM.

What a nightmare that’s going to be. In the rain, no less.

Thanks to the MLB partnership with StubHub, there’s still time to get tickets to tonight’s game.. And prices are MUCH cheaper than you’d think!

The Twins and Tigers met last night in only the ninth one-game tie-breaker in baseball history. There were 12 innings in this game, 13 pitchers, 24 hits, seven ties or lost leads, two dramatic put-outs at the plate, a controversial call, a pair of bases-loaded escapes and, in the end, a Minnesota victory delivered in front of a Metrodome record 54,088 fans.

The Metrodome erupted in a jet-like roar as Carlos Gomez zoomed home with the winning run in the 12th inning to finish off an AL Central race that didn’t want to end. Alexi Casilla singled home the winning run with one out in the 12th inning, and the Twins rallied for a 6-5 victory Tuesday night.

The Colorado Rockies will be the Wild Card team in the National League playoffs. The Rockies, who had won five consecutive games to stay in the race for the NL West title, fell to the Los Angeles Dodgers, 5-0, on Saturday night. That means the Rockies will face the Philadelphia Phillies when the NL playoffs begin on Wednesday. Games 3 and 4 of the division playoff series are scheduled for Coors Field on Saturday, Oct. 10 and Sunday, Oct. 11.

Six months after another roller-coaster campaign began, one word now defines the 2009 season: October. The postseason picture is rapidly taking shape across the bigs, as perennial powerhouses like the Yankees, Angels, Red Sox, Cardinals, Dodgers and Phillies have already clinched playoff spots. As those clubs wait to see who will join them in the chase for a title, a series of individual battles like the AL MVP and NL Cy Young races remain tightly contested. So how will it all shake out? Find out by tuning in as October begins.
