Phillies Win Division! Updates on Other Divisions..
In the last game of the season, the 1977 Phillies emphatically beat the 1933 Giants 12-1 to win the NL East. The late surge from the 2015 Mets and 1949 Dodgers wasn't enough.
In other games of importance, the last place 1920 White Sox played as spoilers for the 1911 Tigers in beating them 5-2. The Tigers could of won the NL West outright over the 2005 White Sox, but the 1920 team had other plans. Now the 2005 team has to win over 1954 Indians to take the West outright. Otherwise, a one game playoff between the Tigers and White Sox.
In the AL East, the 1916 Red Sox, played spoiler too with a win over the 1945 Senators. The Red Sox, who have been on a hot streak, took the last game against Washington 6-2 with a 12th inning explosion. So now the Senators are 1/2 game up on the 1987 Toronto Blue Jays. They play the 1996 Yankees and have to win in order to remain alive for a one game playoff.
The NL West will be decided when the 1967 Cardinals take on the 1959 LA Dodgers at Busch Stadium. A Dodgers win give them the division outright, otherwise, it'll be a 1 game playoff for both.
Sounds confusing? Now the real fun begins!
