And, October baseball begins tomorrow, as the playoffs kick into gear. Here are the matchups…

American League

    Eastern Division Champions: New York Yankees
    Central Division Champions: Minnesota Twins

    Western Division Champions: Anaheim Angels
    Wild Card Winners: Boston Red Sox


National League

    Eastern Division Champions: Atlanta Braves
    Wild Card Winners: Houston Astros

    Central Division Champions: St. Louis Cardinals
    Western Division Champions: Los Angeles Dodgers
KC's View:
We think that the Cardinals and the Braves will meet to decide the National league pennant, and that the Yankees and Red Sox will meet yet again to see who goes to the World Series from the American League.

And then…we’ll go out on a limb and say that the Cardinals will face the Red Sox in the 2004 World Series.

And then? Oh, what the hell. Red Sox in seven.

Ya gotta believe.
