Should the final baseball season standings reflect tonight's 163rd game?

    Which reminds me---Roger Maris and Hank Aaron are still the respective home-run kings.

    Just making sure.

    Not only is it a regular-season game, but it's also the only game officially referred to as a playoff game.

    The ones that start today are postseason games.

    Actually, they weren't referring to it so much as a playioff game yesterday. I heard tie-breaker game and play-in game. More stupid TV speak.

    It was a one-game playoff for the Central Division regular-season title. Ergo, a regular-season game

    *Correctly* referred to as a playoff game, then.
