This could be the night that settles the teams who are in the American League postseason picture. If the Orioles beat the Twins, then the Twins are eliminated, the Orioles are confirmed as the #1 wild card team and it’s left to the Tigers and Royals to settle who will play the Orioles.
Either of the Tigers and Royals can clinch their own postseason spots with a win regardless of what happens to the Twins, or, if the Tigers lose, the O’s clinch regardless of what happens in their own game. It’s a busy night! The Tigers get under way against the White Sox at 6:40 - so already begun by the time this posts - while the Royals start their game against the Braves at 7:20.
