| MLB sets game times for Division Series AL Central tiebreaker will be played Tuesday night

Major League Baseball has established game times for the 2009 Division Series -- as well as for Tuesday's American League Central tiebreaker between the Tigers and the Twins.
That game in the Metrodome is set for 5:07 p.m. ET, to be broadcast by TBS and the ESPN Radio Network.
The same broadcast partners will be carrying all four Division Series, which will kick off Wednesday with the Rockies and the Phillies meeting in Philadelphia at 2:37 p.m. ET.
Two other series will launch later on Wednesday: the Twins/Tigers winner will meet the Yankees in Yankee Stadium at 6:07 p.m. ET, followed by the Cardinals at the Dodgers at 9:37 p.m. ET from Dodger Stadium.
The scheduling of the game involving the Yankees is tentative at the moment, and assumes New York will opt for the eight-day LDS schedule, as is its option due to having concluded regular-season play with the AL's top record.
The Yankees will have until one hour after the conclusion of the Detroit-Minnesota playoff to make that decision.
The rest of the set schedule, with times for other contests to be determined at a later date, as Division Series play moves along (all times ET):
THURSDAY
Rockies at Phillies, 2:37 p.m. Cardinals at Dodgers, 6:07 p.m. Red Sox at Angels, 9:37 p.m.
FRIDAY
Tigers/Twins at Yankees, 6:07 p.m. Red Sox at Angels, 9:37 p.m.
SATURDAY
Dodgers at Cardinals, 6:07 p.m. Phillies at Rockies, 9:37 p.m.
