In baseball, the Giants have claimed the National League West, and the Braves have clinched a tie in the East; unless they lose the rest of their games and the Marlins with the rest of theirs, including a playoff with the Braves, the Braves win the division. The Astros lost, so the Cubs are just a half game back in the Central; in the A.L. Central, the White Sox have gone in one week from two games ahead to two and a half behind, in part because of an 0-4 record against the Twins in that period of time. The Red Sox and the Marlins are each a game and a half ahead in their wild-card races, and the Tigers can go 4-7 the rest of the way to tie the Mets' record for losses in a season; that would be a better winning percentage than they've had this year, so they have a decent shot at the record books.
