The ruling was met by some objections from San Francisco Giants fans, who pointed out that their team was trailing in the wild card race by only two games, and that with 28 games scheduled, the results were too close to be considered final, and that the continuing count of games should continue.
By a 5-4 decision back on August 30th, the Supreme Court ruled that because the expanded roster would be going into effect tomorrow, there would no longer be time to play out the rest of the season, and therefore the standings as of August 29th would be considered the final standings.
The Court ruled, 5-4, that the commonly accepted practice of “roster expansion” meant that a fair continuation of the dynamics of the league standings would be impossible, and therefor the official game status should be nullified as of that date.

After showing promise the past three seasons as a No. 4-type outfielder with the Minnesota Twins and San Francisco Giants, Mohr, 28, will have a chance to fill Jeromy Burnitz's swing role.
Ponson, 28, still has not been charged and is scheduled to appear at a hearing this morning at which prosecutors can ask for up to eight more days for their investigation, during which time Ponson, by law, would remain in jail.
