Nationals won this afternoon and locked up the #1 seed and home field advantage for the playoffs.

And here's the scenarios for the AL teams playing for their spots and the Reds/Nats. You can thank Jayson Stark at ESPN for this.

If the Yankees lose and the Orioles win

Then the AL East is tied (at 94-68), and the Yankees and Orioles have to play a tiebreaker game Thursday in Baltimore. The winner is the AL East champ. The loser is the wild-card team. But is it the "first" wild card or the "second" wild card? That depends on what happens in Oakland.

If the A's beat the Rangers


Then Oakland (94-68) wins the AL West, and Texas (93-69) is a wild-card team. But would the Rangers be the "first" wild card or the "second" wild card? That depends on what happens in the AL East:
  • If the Yankees and Orioles both win Wednesday, the Orioles (94-68) would host the Rangers (93-69) in the wild-card game Friday. Why? Because a Baltimore win Wednesday would give the Orioles the better record.
  • If the Orioles lose Wednesday and finish with the same record as Texas (93-69), the Rangers would host the wild-card game Friday because they won the season series from Baltimore.
  • If the Rangers lose and there's a tie for the AL East (at 94-68), the AL East loser hosts the Rangers in the wild-card game because either still would have more wins (94) than Texas (93).
If the Rangers beat the A's

Then the Rangers (94-68) win the AL West, and Oakland (93-67) is a wild card. But is it the "first" wild card or "second" wild card? Again, that depends on developments in the AL East.
If the Yankees and Orioles both win Wednesday, the Orioles would host the A's in the wild-card game because Baltimore would have one more regular-season win (94) than Oakland (93).


If the Yankees lose, the Orioles win, there's a tie for the AL East and Oakland loses to Texas, the loser of the AL East tiebreaker game hosts the A's. Again, the reason: The AL East loser still would have more wins (94) than Oakland (93).


If the Yankees, Orioles and A's all lose Wednesday, the Orioles and A's would finish with the same record (93-69). If that happens, the A's host the wild-card game Friday. Why? Because they won the season series.
Who's No. 1 in the AL?

If the Yankees win Wednesday:

Then this is simple. They're the No. 1 seed in the AL. So their first Division Series game is Sunday at the winner of the wild-card game.
The AL West winner then would head for Detroit to start its Division Series on Saturday.

If there's a Yankees-Orioles tie:
This gets trickier. Then there's a three-way tie for the best record in the AL (Yankees, Orioles and the AL West champ, all at 94-68).


Under that scenario, the AL East tiebreaker game would not be used to determine seeding, even though it is otherwise considered a regular-season game. So how would that seeding be sorted out? Here's the breakdown:
  • Yankees win the AL East, Rangers win the AL West: Yankees are the No. 1 seed and play the wild-card winner. Rangers are the No. 2 seed and play at Detroit. Why? Yankees won the season series.
  • Yankees win the AL East, A's win the AL West: A's are the No. 1 seed and play the wild-card survivor. Yankees are the No. 2 seed and face Detroit. Why? Yankees and A's split the season series, but A's had the better record in division games.
  • Orioles win the AL East, Rangers win the AL West: Rangers are the No. 1 seed and draw the wild-card winner. Orioles are the No. 2 seed and play Detroit. Why? Rangers won the season series.
  • Orioles win the AL East, A's win the AL West: A's are the No. 1 seed. Orioles are the No. 2 seed. Same LDS matchups. Why? Orioles won the season series.
If the Yankees and the Orioles both lose Wednesday

Then there's a tie for the best record between the Yankees and the AL West champ (at 93-69).
Under that scenario, the Yankees are the No. 1 seed if the Rangers win the West -- but the No. 2 seed if the A's win the West. Why? See the tiebreaker scenarios above.
Who's No. 1 in the NL?

The Reds and Nationals head into their games Wednesday with the same record (97-64). So …

If the Reds win and the Nationals lose

Then the Reds are the No. 1 seed and play Sunday at the home of the wild-card survivor. And the Nationals are the No. 2 seed and play Saturday in San Francisco.

If the Nationals win and the Reds lose

Then the Nationals are the No. 1 seed and visit the wild-card winner Sunday. And the Reds are the No. 2 seed and start their Division Series on Saturday in San Francisco.

If the Nationals and Reds finish tied

Then the Nationals are the No. 1 seed. And the Reds are the No. 2 seed. (Same matchups as the Nationals win/Reds lose scenario above.) Why? Nationals won the season series.

Yeah was watching a stream on my phone at the hospital and they gave up 5 runs and I'm expecting a wild card.

Now I get home and they're up 8-5.

Plenty of tickets available in Texas..lol

Guess they didn't bother buying wild card tix.

No matter what, their pitchers are light years worse than Tampa's so I don't expect the o's bats to stay cold.

Plus,it still plays right into the master plan..o's vs Yankees alds, game 1 and 2 in Baltimore..

Lucchino ends up as the biggest loser since Bobby V was his personal pick even though he refused to allow Bobby V to handpick the coaching staff. He's lost a lot of influence over the team since last September.

Bobby V has been acting like a jackass the last couple of weeks.

No way he ever gets another chance to manage after this debacle in Boston. And he certainly didn't help his case.

Surely it wasn't his own doing, that team was F'd up before he ever got there.

But the last couple of weeks he's been trying to give reportes some wise-ass comments and acting up. He hasn't helped his case.

lol imagine if this game drags on even further and Granderson ends up with 2 more at-bats to potentially fuck up Miggy's triple crown?

If he pitches better than Cobb/shields/hellickson did then so be it, but I've got a feeling just like Jim Palmer just said in the post game that he won't..

Granderson is out of the game.

Miguel Cabrera has won the AL Triple Crown.

Hadn't been done since 1967. History, people.
