Both teams clinch in the same game?
I was just looking at the NL standings, and with the Giants up a game on the Pads for the division, and the Pads tied with the Braves for the WC, it's possible for both teams in the Giants/Pads game to clinch a playoff spot tomorrow (if the Braves lose and the Pads win). There could be champagne flowing in each clubhouse at AT&T Park, has that ever happened before?!

Re: Both teams clinch in the same game?
If that happens and Giants and Padres are tied will there have to be a playoff on Monday for the div. title or is there a tiebreaker?

Re: Both teams clinch in the same game?
I believe that if the Braves lose and the Giants lose, that the Giants and Padres will play a game for the division title. Then, the loser will play the Braves for the wild card. Right?

Re: Both teams clinch in the same game?
Actually Justin is right. If the Padres and Braves do the same thing there will be a playoff. If they both win there would be a 3 way tie for the last two spots, so the Giants/Padres play Monday for the West, and the loser goes to Atlanta to play for the WC on Tuesday. If they both lose they'll have a tiebreaker for the WC on Monday. If the Padres win and Braves lose, Padres get the West and Giants get the WC. If the Padres lose and Braves win, Giants get the West and Braves the WC.

Whoops I read that wrong. I thought it said if the Braves and Padres lose.

I went to the Braves game tonight and it was great! After the game and the REO Speedwagon concert (bleh) The allowed fans to stay and watch the Giants game on the big screen. All of the players stayed and had their celebration when the Giants won.
