MLB Playoffs: Wild-Card Kickoff Tonight

The MLB playoffs start tonight at 5 PM ET with a game that’s everything Bud Selig could have hoped for when he instituted this AL/NL doubleheader f one-game knockouts. The first game will be St. Louis visiting Atlanta. Here we have the two teams that were the National League side of last year’s wild finish, when the Cardinals overtook the Braves on the final day of the season. And we have Atlanta legend Chipper Jones potentially playing his final game. Yes, this wild-card game knockout is a good idea.
