Eight teams remain in the 2022 postseason. After today's league division series games, that number could be cut nearly in half.
Three teams trail their best-of-five series and are facing elimination. In the American League, the Seattle Mariners play their first home playoff game in more than 20 years, hoping to avert a sweep against the Houston Astros.
In the National League, the Philadelphia Phillies jumped on the Atlanta Braves early in a 9-1 NLDS Game 3 victory Friday night and are now one win away from eliminating the defending champions.
