It's a strange weekend for baseball, in that there are no series matching post-season contenders. The closest would be the Tigers/Rays and Red Sox/White Sox matchups, but you had to stretch the definition of "contender" to get either of Rays or White Sox in there. The Rays were six games out of the wild-card slot behind two teams when the weekend began, while the White Sox were seven games behind the Tigers, in third place in the AL Central. That series at the Tropicana Dome was actually the only one over the weekend that matched up two teams above .500.
