The Major League Baseball postseason is nearly upon us! As is recent tradition, six teams from the American League and six teams from the National League will compete in the playoffs. The top two teams from each league, as determined by the regular season standings, are guaranteed a spot in the playoffs. The next three teams in the standings and the lowest-ranked division winner from each league will compete in the Wild Card series, which runs from Oct. 1 through Oct. 3. to secure their spot in the next round, in a best-of-three format. Six wild card teams make the MLB Playoffs, and while this weekend’s regular season games will ultimately determine which teams will play in the Wild Card series, here’s a primer on how to watch the MLB Wild Card series when it begins Oct. 1.
