Surely you recall the last day of the regular season last year...

Jamie Moyer pitched a gem, Brett Myers finished with a flourish and the Phillies and their fans rejoiced in a postgame celebration on a day when the team clinched its first postseason berth in 14 years.

Well there's a chance the season could come down to the final day again - the Phillies entered Sunday's day-night doubleheader 2 games back of wild card-leader Milwaukee and 2 1/2 games back of NL East leader New York.

And the Phillies may not be able to celebrate if they win on that final day. Blame Ike.

The Hurricane that whipped threw Texas this weekend has moved the Astros-Cubs series to Milwaukee today and tomorrow. But that's just two games... if the third game of the series is needed (the way the Astros are playing, I believe it will be), it won't be played until Monday, Sept. 29 --- the day after the final day of regular season play for all teams.

And it will be played in Houston.

If the Phillies overtake the Mets in the next 14 days, it won't matter. But something tells me these Mets won't fold, and all eyes are going to be on the wild card in the last weekend of the season.

The last weekend... and now Monday, too.
