The Braves locked down the lone remaining division titlewith their 2-1 win over the Marlins, their fifth straight NL East crown, which earns them a first-round bye. As the NLs No. 2 seed, they will face the winner of the Wild Card Series between the Cardinals and the No. 6 seed Phillies. Atlanta went 4-3 against the Cardinals and 11-8 against the division-rival Phillies this year.

Both the AL and NL now have three Wild Card berths (up from two), with the top two seeds in each league receiving first-round byes. The other teams will pair up for the best-of-three Wild Card Series, in which all three games will be played at the home of the higher seed, with winners advancing to the Division Series.
