Three MLB wild-card series came to an end on Wednesday -- and one is headed to a win-or-go-home Game 3.

The Detroit Tigers continued their shocking surge with a wild-card sweep, eliminating the AL West champion Houston Astros with a comeback win. The Kansas City Royals followed suit in the second AL matchup of the day, sweeping the Baltimore Orioles with a 2-1 win in Baltimore. After trailing the New York Mets for the majority of the game, the Milwaukee Brewers had a three-run, two-homer eighth inning to beat New York and force a Game 3 on Thursday.
