"So it's the last Sunday home game of the regular season, and you have to feel pretty good now about where the Braves stand. The Phillies clinched their fifth straight NL East division last night, but thanks to the Braves' 1-0 win over the Mets, and the Cardinals losing to the Phillies, the Braves are 4 ½ games up in the wild card with only 10 games left to play. (The Cardinals have 11 games left.)

The magic number is 7, any combination of Braves wins and Cardinals' losses totaling seven and the Braves are popping champagne.

I actually had a request yesterday for some math, so I'll oblige. It was "please give one of those if the Braves go 1-for-x the rest of the way" scenarios. So here it is. Even if the Braves go 1-9 the rest of the way, the Cardinals would have go to 6-5 to tie them, 7-4 to win it outright."
