MLB's shortened 60-game regular season has come to a close, and the league's 16-team expanded playoff format is set.
More than half of MLB teams reached the postseason this year under the new structure with series being held in neutral sites past the first round. This year's postseason features four rounds, including the new wild card series. All first-round games will be played at the home ballpark of the higher seeds.
The final postseason seedings came down to the wire with four spots up for grabs in the National League and a tight American League Central title race entering Sunday.
