Two elimination games are set to take place in Major League Baseball’s best-of-five division series.
The Seattle Mariners and the Detroit Tigers will do battle in the ALDS for the right to take on the Toronto Blue Jays in the American League Championship Series.
The defending champion Los Angeles Dodgers await the Game 5 NLDS winner between the Chicago Cubs and the Milwaukee Brewers, who had the best record in baseball during the regular season. For the Cubs, a victory over their division rivals will mark the 11th time a team that has trailed 0-2 has come back to win in the division series. The last team to accomplish that feat was the 2017 New York Yankees, who rallied to beat Cleveland.
