This could be -- should be -- the most exciting day of the 2010 regular season. In Atlanta, the Braves will hold a lengthy pregame tribute to retiring manager Bobby Cox before trying once again to ensure they send him out with another trip to the postseason with a game against the Phillies that has huge wild card implications.
In San Francisco, the Padres and Giants will continue their battle for the NL West title, with the Giants once again able to clinch if they win. The Padres kept them from doing so Friday night in a tense, tightly contested game.
Both of those contests will begin at 4:10 p.m. ET and be televised by FOX -- as they should be, considering they're the only games that matter of the 15 on the schedule today when it comes to determining who makes the playoffs. But a huge chunk of the country's population won't see either game.
Why? The never-ending Yankees-Red Sox fixation, naturally.
