Fox can continue to start games at 8:40 to ensure that Phillies fans in Los Angeles don't miss a pitch (because Phillies fans in LA are all home by 5:40).
When a team has won three games in the series, any potentially clinching game will be played in two parts. The game will be suspended after 6 innings, then the next night (or the next night that doesn't compete against football) the Series Shootout will resume at 8:40pm.
I loved it. I got to see the end of a playoff game for the first time since about 1980. Fox got their late start. The Phillies got to jack everyone for parking twice. More beer and hot dogs were sold. Phillies fans in Los Angeles had a convenient start time. Barack got to have his own tv show. Everybody wins!
