Reds playoff push could now depend on chaotic tiebreaker scenarios nobody wanted

After losing to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday, the Cincinnati Reds now sit at 80-77 on the season and are one game behind the New York Mets in the race for the final NL Wild Card spot. To make matter worse for the Reds, the Arizona Diamondbacks overcame a 4-0 deficit to the Los Angeles Dodgers, and are now tied with Cincinnati in the standings.

After dropping eight of their last 10 games, the San Francisco Giants have all but been eliminated form the NL Wild Card conversation. In fact, the St. Louis Cardinals and Miami Marlins now have a better record than San Fran.
