Blue Jays win the AL Wild Card on an Encarnacion 10th inning blast.


SFG-NYM going at it in the NL Wild Card. 7th inning shutout so far. Syndergaard throwing 98 mph in the 7th inning....

Giants win - unbelievable. You had to win ONE game, and you would at least make them play the Cardinals first. Cubs should destroy them, though.

I don't know, it was pretty close season series 3-4 and that's the regular season Giants.

Same. Please don't let the Giants continue their even year streaks.

Even year Giants have won 11 straight series including wild cards (I guess baseball counts it as a series). Cubs gotta remember to keep putting slugs into them until they're no longer moving. Like zombies...

Not surprised by the results. Give this squad life and they will roll in the postseason...Wouldn't be surprised if they beat the Cubs since its a short series.

I haven't seen so much incompetence from managers in a long time. If I owned the Orioles and the Mets, I would fire Showalter and Collins. How do you take out Syndergaard? You are in a one and done series buddy. And then you put in Familia? The goat of last years collapse?

If the Dodgers don't #WIN4VIN after an unprecedented 67-year career, then I'll never believe in any sort of baseball god(s) ever again. Not when Vin himself is a prophet.

Dodgers vs. Giants is the NLCS that needed to happen in 2014. I hope it happens.

He was over 100 pitches and there were two innings left.

In baseball, teams that get hot at the right time usually advance far in the postseason....unfortunately, that team might be the Giants now....with tonights win, they have won their 5th straight game if we are counting back to regular season games.

Jesus Christ, the Giants always get lucky and have some scrub like a Conor Gillaspie or a Travis Ishikawa get a huge clutch hit.

I have the Blue Jays over the Rangers and the Indians over the Red Sox. Giants over the Cubs and Dodgers over the Nationals. In the next round I have Cleveland and Giants, with the Indians winning the Series.

I picked the Dodgers to win the 2016 World Series after they dumped Don Mattingly I am sticking with it.

But if I'm wrong

Anyone but the Red Sox and Cubs.

Dodgers ain't going to win jack. That's a team that continually chokes every year. No offense to Dodgers fans here.
