If you thought the end of the 2006 season was crazy, get ready for possibly an ever crazier finish to the 2008 season. 

The White Sox had their doubleheader with the Tigers rained out today. They’ll play two on Sunday - with a makeup game with the Tigers left.

When will that game be played?

The White Sox have an off-day on Sept. 22 - the Tigers don’t.

Know what that means? If the White Sox are within 1/2 game of the Twins after Sept. 28, they will make up the game with the Tigers on Mon., Sept. 29. If there’s a tie after that, a one-game Twins-Sox playoff would go down on the 30th - with the ALDS possibly starting on Wed., Oct. 1.

And the Twins lost the coin flip for home field if they are tied with the Sox.

Oh joy!

So pull for the Twins to blow past the Sox and pull away in the AL Central.
