Last season, TBS had the fortune to carry the San Diego-Colorado one game playoff which gave the network momentum heading into its first year of carrying the League Division Series. If there is a one game playoff tomorrow night, expect decent ratings for TBS as well.

ESPN Radio will also have coverage.
