The Major League Baseball postseason opens up on Tuesday with four wild-card round series.
The three-game wild-card series will advance two teams in the American and National Leagues into the divisional series.
The current playoff format has benefited the wild-card teams in the past two years, as three of the four World Series participants started in that round.
A handful of top-tier teams would love to end the wild-card trend by reaching the Fall Classic, but the top two sides in each league have to wait until Saturday to hit the field again.
