    NL Wild Card scenario??

    So if the Padres lose tomorrow and the Mets and Phils both win....everyone is 89-73. Of course everyone knows the Mets/Phils would need to have the one game playoff, but does that game count toward overall percentage? Basically, if it comes down to that one game playoff, does the loser lose out everything? Would seem that the loser would still need to play the Padres for the WC slot, no?

    As far as I know, it would work out to where the Phils and Mets play, and the loser plays the Padres the next day for the wild card. I'm not totally sure though.

        Based on everything I've read, I think I can say I'm pretty sure that's the case. Sorry man, I wish I could be 100% but I can't find anything concrete.

          It's a little old, but if you go back and look at the 2003 postseason tiebreakers that you can find from Google, they state.

          "Any playoff games played to determine a Division champion shall not count in determining which Clubs are deemed tied for a Wild Card designation."


          Hope it helps.

            The Rockies could still be in the mix too, if they win and the Padres lose. I really hope the Padres lose tomorrow so we get a shot at the awesome 4-way tie. Come on Brewers, your work's not done yet!
