After six months and 161 games Major League Baseball will need all 162 contests to bring the postseason picture into focus with the New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays and Seattle Mariners chasing two American League wildcard spots.
It will be all to play for on Sunday with the Yankees and Red Sox holding a one game advantage on the Blue Jays and perhaps the Mariners who take on the Los Angeles Angels later on Saturday.
"It kind of makes sense that it would come down to the very last day," said Yankees outfielder Brett Gardner. "That seems about right with the way the season has gone." The Red Sox survived a roller-coaster end to their afternoon beating the Washington Nationals 5-3 to keep pace with the Yankees. The Blue Jays bats were also booming in Toronto as George Springer, Vladimir Guerrero Jr, Danny Jansen, Teoscar Hernandez and Bo Bichette all homered.It has been a particularly nomadic marathon for the Blue Jays who began the season playing home games at their Spring training base in Florida, moved to Buffalo, New York for much of the summer before COVID-19 restrictions in Canada relaxed enough allow them to return to Toronto in late July.
