With 1 game left. If the braves lose and the cards win there will be a one game playoff.
Also the redsox and rays could have a 1 game playoff.
The Braves and the Cardinals are tied, as are the Red Sox and the Rays.
If the Braves and Cardinals both win OR both lose, there will be a one game playoff tomorrow.
The same scenario exists for the Red Sox and the Rays.
The Cardinals have Chris Carpenter facing the Astros with Brett Myers. Edge Cards
The Braves have Tim Hudson facing the Phillies with Joe Blanton. Toss up.
The Red Sox have John Lester facing the Orioles.......HUGE edge Red Sox
The Rays have David Price facing the Yankees with Phil Hughes. Toss up.
I believe there is a greater chance of a playoff game in the AL than in the NL.

Originally posted by shortcircuitAmazing. Boston blows it.
Yankees had 2 on and nobody out and couldn't score against Tampa as well.
I wonder if the Yankees wouldn't mind seeing Tampa instead of Boston.
Boston loses.
With that procession of pitchers New York threw out there today, it wouldn't surprise me if they were trying to lose the game.
