As best I can figure out, the divisional play offs will be strictly on MLB, that said, it seems as though last year, some of the playoffs were also on ESPN.

The XM radio website is very stingy with the info; one would think they would promote MLB more than they do on their website; I had to use the search mode to find out the info I was able to find; nothing on their homepage even alluded to the play offs.

I believe you will be able to hear both teams' broadcasts as well as the ESPN broadcast as well. That's how they worked it in the past. GO PHILS!!!

That is true and is why on both games I listed in my prior post, there are two XM channels listed for each game, one for the home team broadcast and one for the visitors.

When I went to the ESPN website, as well as the local ESPN affiliate website, neither mentioned airing the game; although I too though that ESPN has aired the playoffs in the past; but I could be mistaken.

Last night I turned on XM during the Texas-TB game and found the ESPN broadcast on 178. 84 was carrying Mike Tirico's weekend so it appears the ESPN radio channel will not have the games - it will be on one of the MLB channels.
 
The Main ESPN Radio channel will have LCS and WS games only...ESPN is feeding LDS games on an alternate channel so stations can have the option of carrying the games or carrying talk programming

In Rays home territory, tonight's game will be on two channels on XM, as well as WDAE 620 (10,000 special temporary authority to combat the 24/7 Cuban interference) as well as WHBO 1040, which has Cuban interference but no special temporary authority).
