I know they will try to get the game in at all cost.
According to...

there is only a 15% chance of rain during the game.

Re: Game 163 Discussion Thread
One thing I'm curious to see in both of these games, is how aggressive are the teams with their pitching staffs/bullpens given, that even if they lose they are still in playoffs, albeit a one game playoff for wildcard.

Should be interesting.

That would only work if the first game is at 6 so that the 2nd game would theoretically start at 9 so even then it's not PERFECT. Still, I somewhat agree with your premise there.

I was watching MLB Network yesterday and even if there was only one "Game 163" it would've started at 4 which doesn't make much sense as they could definitely put it in a prime time window. I also think some of it has to do with tV contracts. I believe both games are on ESPN and well, MNF is tonight.

The league is probably kicking themselves for not scheduling the WC games reverse. They probably would have had at least one in prime time if they had the travel day.

The NL Wild Card game is also tomorrow. Not really fair to put one team playing at 8 pm ET the day before, then possibly having to travel and play tomorrow night.
