Around SBN: Knicks Beat Lakers With Familiar Strategy

Second off-day in jeopardy

http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/playoffs2008/news/story?id=3658645

So there's rain in the forecast for Saturday night. Major League Baseball, in its infinite wisdom, has announced that if there's a rainout that day, all three games in Philadelphia will be pushed back a day but Games 6 and 7 will not be pushed back. The teams will instead just lose their off-day on Tuesday.

Which means that there would be games on five consecutive days. The available starters for Game 7 would then be J.A. Happ and Short Rest Moyer for the Phillies, Edwin Jackson and Short Rest Garza for the Rays.

This strikes me as bad news.
