And they utilize a decidedly more balanced batting order — one lefty hitter, a switch-hitter and two platoons, with power results. That being said, it’s the Jays, not the O’s, who are in charge of the hunt for Blue October and a No. If they win two of three games against Baltimore, the Jays can make it very difficult on the Birds when it come to securing the No. The division winner with the best record plays the winner of the one-game wild-card battle. The division champ with the second-best record hosts the third division winner, with the extra game at home in a five-game series.
