News: One-Game Playoff on Sale NOW
By Matthew Cerrone - Sep 30, 2007 10:55 am

As of RIGHT NOW, you can purchase tickets to the potential tiebreaker game between the Mets and Phillies at Citizen’s Bank park through an Internet-only presale by going to Phillies.com.

The game has been scheduled for 1 pm.

…nice move, Phillies…it was advertised that tickets would go on sale at 11 am…then, suddenly, the gates are open at 10 am…very sneaky…well done

Phillies RHP Brett Myers, as quoted back in February…

“I hate the Mets. I want to beat them more than anyone else. What we need to do is make sure none of their fans get in our building. We shouldn’t sell tickets to Mets fans.”

    Does anyone know what time the game would start tomorrow? I need to know if I have to miss work or not.

    thats fantastic comment i love it and i totally agree mets fans are nothing but the scum of MLB

      MLB has announced on ESPN radio that Play-in game if played in Philadelphia will be 1:05 pm.

      Other scheduled to be announced as the day goes on.

      WATCH THE VIDEO ON THAT WEBSITE. these fans are the most despicable people on the planet. honestly, i hate the braves, but the phillies are in a whole new league. these are the trashiest, most unclassy miserable fans to walk on this planet.

      • Stems says:

        phillies fans are illiterate trash…

        now there’s a video to prove it!

        oh and also a website where every other word is the F bomb!

        thanks philsphan!

        what else you got???

      • MeetTheMets says:

        Wow. I went to college in Philly for 4 years & went to nearly every Met/Philly game and have never seen anything quite like that. Granted, I’d end up moving my seats around to sit with other groups of Met fans so as to form a bit more of a presence, but still… Usually Philly security acts a lil quicker too & doesn’t let things escalate quite like that.

        I just hope that the Met fan gets a hold of this vid and is able to use it to press charges…

        • Bengals55 says:

          From what I remember it wasn’t actually a Mets fan thing. It was a row of college kids pissing off an adult in front of them. Most Met fans wear Mets gear. I go very often to the games and fights are pretty rare. There are just too many fans of both teams around.

  3. mets17 says:

    i got my tickets. lets go mets

  4. domosnacks5 says:

    1 PM. I’m at school up in ‘cuse and decided I’m skipping tomorrow if necessary. I also have NLDS game 1 tix… so i guess I’m skipping Wednesdsay if necessary also.

    LET’S GO METS!!!!!

    got my CBP tix also, straight away center, 4th row section 146. I guess the sneaky phillies fans nabbed up all the tickets but regardless I’ll be there head to toe in Mets gear ready to throw down

    • backinbusiness says:

      where are you getting 1pm from? My tickets say time TBA.

      • domosnacks5 says:

        most one-game playoffs are day games if i recall. Especially if the pads/rockies are tied also, then whoever loses the game monday would need to travel to play the rockies/pads, so they would definitely make it a 1pm start if it ends up being a 3 or 4 way tie

  5. backinbusiness says:

    just got my tickets too, LGM!!!

    • BAMetsFan says:

      got my tickets! Infield seats no less, these philly fans have no heart.
      let’s hope we don’t need them!
      Let’s Go Mets!

  6. dykstraw says:

    in for 4, right field sec 105.

  7. mrosey says:

    DAMMIT! They’re reasonably priced and there are still good seats hanging around but I got way too much work to head down to Philly.

  8. Stems says:

    why are you guys bothering??

    mets win today and phils lose!

    done!

    • sincekindergarten says:

      Exactly . . . then the MVP for JRoll would make a nice consolation prize, wouldn’t it? :D ;)

    • Ceetar says:

      Credit card award points. It’s all about the reward points.

      The Phillies fans are pathetic. I noticed “Charlie Manual for manager of the year” signs yesterday..this is the guy they wanted to run out of town (with Burrell) three months ago.

      • ghobot says:

        i wouldnt question the philly fan passion when this sight was morgue with a bunch of fans ready to jump ship. some even did. lets go mets!

  9. mets17 says:

    Wait so its at 1pm. Damn it, I wish it was at 7 but im still going anyway

  10. coreynyc says:

    Hopefully everything is wrapped up today (Mets win, Phillies do what the Phillies do best), otherwise see you tomorrow in Sec 107 of the Bank!

  11. coreynyc says:

    My guess is that the game is at 4 or 7 PM.

  12. BAMetsFan says:

    Have you guys seen the multiple tie breaking games that could still be possible if a four way tie occurs after today? if mets, philly & Colorado win and Padres lose, it could be a 4 team tie and there could be mulitple games played even after the possible mets/phils matchup monday… maybe even another game at Shea to determine the wildcard if the mets lost to phily in a monday game. When would those tickets go on sale?

    http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3025796

    crazy season! i dont have any fingernails left.

  13. thechime says:

    is it possible that the mets win the division, the padres (or the rockies) tie with the phils for the wildcard and the tickets i just bought will be used to play that run-off game? in other words, is it possible that i just bought three (nicely priced field) seats for a game that might not even involve the mets?

  14. mets17 says:

    These are the first tickets I have ever bought where I hope I dont have to use them

  15. mbeli says:

    I wish i didn’t have school all day and night tomorrow b/c I would be there as well. Thats funny they have been on sale for an hour and still good seats available. Thats Philly for you, I guess they are getting ready for the Eagles game.

    Go Mets and Big Blue lets make it a devastating day in Philly!!!!!!

  16. Bengals55 says:

    I’m gonna be there in section 317. Metsblog should meet up before the game, decide where we’re gonna celebrate. If we dont win it today.

  17. Krusty The Klown says:

    nice willie might be reading metsblog he has castro and L millz in there again today

    • NY Cuban says:

      NICE…LETS GO METS!!! LETS GO METS!!! LETS GO METS!!!

      Somebody please confirm the time for me. I have two for tomorrow, but if its at 1 I probably can’t go.

      • domosnacks5 says:

        it won’t be known til later on. if the pads win and the mets and phils do the same thing today, then the game might be a 7 o’clock start to score some ratings, but if there’s a 3 or 4 way tie, you can bet everything you’ve got that it will be a 1 oclock start.

  18. domosnacks5 says:

    guys lets not get ahead of ourselves. d-train is on the mound and I really don’t want to look forward to tomorrow yet, we need to take care of business today. i know he’s had an off-year but he still seems to bring his best against us. starting now, let’s save the talk about tomorrow for later, and let’s focus on this game today for now.

  19. mavicario says:

    Got My Tickets!

    Although, I don’t want to have to go. I’m hoping the mets can clinch today.

    I’ll be in section 102 in right field, which is a perfect place to catch a David Wright opposite field HR.

    • domosnacks5 says:

      what row did you get? you mighta gotten the tickets I had to release because i didnt frickin sync my mlb account with the phillies account, i couldnt figure out why it wasnt working until the time i had for my tickets had expired…

      anyways, im in 146 in straightaway center, if your tix are in row 3, you have me to thank.

    • MsMeesh says:

      Mavicario,

      Section 102 as well, row 20!

  20. strawsome says:

    should i buy game 1 or 2?

  21. kendychavez says:

    castro in the lineup today

  22. Go Mets Go says:

    Got my tickets section 140. Lets hope we win the division today and do not need to use them at all.

    GO METS

  23. yougottabereave says:

    Test

  24. yougottabereave says:

    MLB has announced….Play in game tomorrow is 1:05 PM if held in Philadelphia.

  25. 16oz says:

    why would they play thus game at 1 freaking o’clock?

  26. 16oz says:

    and i understand it priovides more time for the teams to rest, but really, this should be a primetime game.

    • yougottabereave says:

      I should clarify. I heard this online on ESPN Radio. As the day goes on other times will be released they said.

      I guess there is a chance it has to do with Monday Night Football.

    • ghobot says:

      the loser of this game may have to go to the west coast that day for a game the next. you cant have it at night.

  27. RyanJoyce says:

    I think it all depends on the tie scenario; if there’s no cross country travel involved (i.e. just 1 game for the Mets/Phils) then the game may play at night. If there is a tie for the Wild Card it could mean a trip for the loser to the West Coast which would suggest a 1:05 game tomorrow in Philadelphia.–and obviously this is speculative so what the hell do i know, right?

    Lets hope the Mets can do it today. If not today, tomorrow. If not tomorrow, Tuesday.

  28. ryno says:

    Two hours after tickets go on sale and you can still get good seats!

    C’mon Mets fans… Fill their park with orange and blue!

    Didnt Myers say something similar about his wife too?
