September 28, 20232 yr comment_1719017 Here are the scenarios. 4-way tie scenario (for 2 spots) Scenario: D-backs, Cubs, Marlins, Reds tie Result: Marlins and Reds IN; D-backs and Cubs OUT There are four teams vying for the remaining two NL Wild Card spots. The second Wild Card spot would go to the team with the best winning percentage against the other tied clubs. That is the Marlins at .611, better than the D-backs (.550), Reds (.538) and Cubs (.346). The third Wild Card would then go to the Reds because they own a winning record against the Cubs (7-6) and D-backs (4-3). 4-way tie scenario (for 1 spot) Scenario: Cubs, Marlins, Reds, Padres tie Result: Padres IN; Cubs, Marlins and Reds OUT Since none of these teams have a winning record against each of the tied clubs, the tiebreaker here is based on winning percentage against the tied clubs. In this scenario, the Padres make the playoffs as their .579 winning percentage against the group is better than the Marlins' (.542), the Reds' (.531) and the Cubs' (.394). 3-way tie scenarios (for 1 spot) Scenario: Marlins claim the 2nd Wild Card; D-backs, Cubs, Reds tie Result: Reds IN; D-backs and Cubs OUT The Reds would claim the third Wild Card because they own a winning record against the Cubs (7-6) and D-backs (4-3). Scenario: D-backs claim 2nd Wild Card; Cubs, Marlins, Reds tie Result: Marlins IN; Cubs and Reds OUT Although the Marlins and Reds each won their season series vs. the Cubs, they split their six head-to-head games, meaning the third Wild Card would go to the team with the best winning percentage against the other two tied clubs. In this scenario, the Marlins would claim the third Wild Card because their .583 winning percentage against the tied clubs is better than the Reds’ (.526) and Cubs’ (.421). Scenario: Cubs claim 2nd Wild Card; D-backs, Marlins, Reds tie Result: Marlins IN; D-backs and Reds OUT Since the Marlins and Reds went 3-3 in their season series, we must again consider head-to-head winning percentages to determine who grabs the third Wild Card spot. In this scenario, the Marlins (.583) make the postseason over the Reds (.538) and D-backs (.385). Scenario: Cubs, Marlins, Padres tie Result: Padres IN; Cubs and Marlins OUT The third Wild Card would go to the Padres in this scenario since their winning percentage against the other two tied clubs (.538) is better than the Marlins' (.500) and the Cubs' (.462). 3-way tie scenarios (for 2 spots) Scenario: D-backs, Cubs, Marlins tie; Reds eliminated Result: Marlins and D-backs IN; Cubs OUT In this scenario, the Marlins would earn the second Wild Card because of their 4-2 records against the D-backs and Cubs. The third Wild Card would go to the D-backs, who were 6-1 vs. Chicago. Scenario: D-backs, Cubs, Reds tie; Marlins eliminated Result: Reds and D-backs IN; Cubs OUT The Reds would earn the second Wild Card in this scenario to their winning records against the D-backs (4-3) and Cubs (7-6). The D-backs would earn the third Wild Card by virtue of their 6-1 record against the Cubs. Scenario: D-backs, Marlins, Reds tie; Cubs eliminated Result: Marlins and Reds IN; D-backs OUT The Marlins (.583) have the highest winning percentage against the tied clubs in this scenario, so they would get the second Wild Card. The Reds would get the third Wild Card because they won their season series vs. the D-backs, 4-3. Report

The Mets were winning at the start of the inning but now are losing 2-1 If they can't finish it they may have to finish at a later date if it effects the standings. The game got postponed after midnight. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/38516920/marlins-mets-suspended-delay-3-hours-17-minutes The game would be resumed at the point of suspension if needed to determine a playoff berth. Under rule 7.02 (b) (4) (A), if the game isn't needed to decide a postseason spot, the game would be called and the score would revert to a 1-0 Mets victory. Ng spoke for less than a minute. No other players or staff members spoke with reporters as the Marlins prepared for their flight to Pittsburgh. With rain letting up, the tarp had been removed around 12:20 a.m. Miami manager Skip Schumaker became involved on the field in an animated conversation with umpire crew chief Alfonso Márquez, a member of the Mets' grounds crew and New York senior vice president of ballpark operations Sue Lucchi.
