The postseason officially begins today! It’s one of those glorious days when you can watch four baseball games all in one day, although you’ll have to skip around as they are sure to overlap time-wise.
Perhaps the most enjoyable part of this round of the playoffs is knowing that the Orioles got to skip it. Along with the AL West-winning Astros, NL East-winning Braves, and NL West-winning Dodgers, they get to sit back and wait until this weekend to begin their postseason journey.
The Wild Card round is a best-of-three series that takes place entirely in the ballpark of the team with the higher seed.
