All three competitors for the second NL Wild Card lost Tuesday night. Given that they play each other head-to-head, that means the maximum number of wins for a three-way tie drops to 89:

Pirates 14-4
Brewers 15-2
Braves 15-2

With Toronto losing and Kansas City and Seattle losing, the six-way tie in the AL stays alive at 91 wins. The order changes a little as Detroit now controls the second wild card slot:

Royals 12-7
Tigers 11-6
Mariners 12-6
Blue Jays 16-2
Indians 17-2
Yankees 18-2

The Indians and Yankees need to start winning to keep this scenario alive.

The four-way tie for two wild cards and the AL Central is still strong at 95 wins, even though Oakland won last night.

Athletics 14-4
Royals 16-3
Tigers 15-2
Mariners 16-2

For today, here are the best results:

• Atlanta defeats Washington
• Cleveland beats Minnesota
• New York bests Tampa Bay
• Pittsburgh loses to Philadelphia
• Toronto defeats the Chicago Cubs
• Kansas City takes one from Detroit
• Oakland loses to the Chicago White Sox
• Milwaukee beats Miami*
• Seattle can go either way against Houston with a bias toward the Mariners winning the game.

*Winning four of their last five games against Atlanta and Milwaukee, the Marlins are on the edge of creating a four-way tie scenario for the second NL Wild Card. However, they are one-game below .500 at the moment. If they win tonight, they’ll join the scenario tomorrow.
