After a long season, 12 MLB teams made it to the next round: the playoffs.
Six teams in each league will compete for the right to be called World Series champs.
After an exciting Wild Card race in both leagues, we finally have our playoff bracket.
In the American League, the Baltimore Orioles and the Houston Astros earned first-round byes and will be ready to play in the Division Series.
In the meantime, the Texas Rangers will face the Tampa Bay Rays while the Toronto Blue Jays will compete with the Minnesota Twins.
The National League saw the Atlanta Braves and Los Angeles Dodgers earn first-round byes.
The Wild Card series will start with the Arizona Diamondbacks visiting the Milwaukee Brewers, and the Miami Marlins competing with their division foes, the Philadelphia Phillies.

All eight teams will play from Tuesday to Thursday in a best-of-three matchup at the home of the better-seeded squad.
It means that if a team wins the first two games in its series, it doesn’t have to play on Thursday.
The home teams in the Wild Card series will be the Rays, Twins, Phillies, and Brewers.
The Braves, Dodgers, Orioles and Astros are waiting for their opponent in the Division Series.
First, we get to enjoy our first taste of postseason baseball with the thrilling Wild Card series.
Home-field advantage is just that: an advantage, by no means a deciding factor.
Let the games begin!
