THE PENNANT RACES ARE HEATING UP!

September means one thing in Major League Baseball:

Every game matters.

Teams are fighting for division titles, Wild Card positions and a chance
to play October baseball.

With only weeks remaining in the regular season, a winning streak ? or a
bad losing streak ? can completely change the playoff picture.
