Game Time Change Announced

by Al Yellon on May 31, 2008 12:44 PM CDT

It's official; the game on Sunday, June 22 at Wrigley Field vs. the White Sox will be ESPN's Sunday night game of the week and begin at 7:05 CDT.

The game between the same two teams the following Sunday at the Cell is still listed as "TBD". Would ESPN do BOTH games? They might, especially if both teams are still in first place in a couple of weeks.

Adjust your schedules accordingly.

They will

Believe it or not they Yankee/Met game is scheduled for the day on Sunday the 29th
and the Cubs/Sox game is still TBD. Wow the world has come to an end if the pick
Cubs/White Sox over Yankees/Mets. Actually the world will only come to an end if they
pick Cubs/Cardinals over Red/Sox Yankees

Not posting on the fan post set up for this but I of course was shocked and disgusted by the short shrift the Cubs game got yesterday. Joba Chamberlains pitch count is the top
baseball story to those guys

You're not correct.

Yankees/Mets are on 6/29, but the two games ESPN has listed as TBD are Cubs/Sox and Angels/Dodgers.

Um that is what I said

I said the Mets/Yankees WHERE scheduled for a day game and the Cubs TBD
Did not mention Angels/Dodgers . I was just noting that the Yankees and Mets
WHERE playing each other on the 29th but where NOT going to be the Sunday night
game which by ESPN standards is shocking. They can aways make teams change
game times if they want ( with I think 2 weeks notice)

I see what you mean.

The way ESPN’s schedule reads on their website, it’s only the Cubs/Sox and Angels/Dodgers games that are listed as TBD.

This is so cool!

Tail gate at the AllState starting at noon. Rush game at 3pm. Rush win (hopefully)! Then bolt to Wrigley…to be on a “Round-Up” watch.

When's the last time that has happened?

When the Cubs and the Whitesox play eachother while both of them are in first place.

Spring training? ;-)

Of course, they’d both be in last place too. And every place in between…
