The second day of the 2025 MLB playoffs is in the books and three out of four series are headed to a do-or-die Game 3. The Los Angeles Dodgers are the lone team to wrap up their Wild Card Series, sweeping the Cincinnati Reds in dominating fashion.
Back-to-back home runs from Seiya Suzuki and Carson Kelly were the difference Tuesday as the Chicago Cubs rallied for a 3-1 win in Game 1 of their Best of 3 Wild Card series against the San Diego Padres.
The Reds and Mets are tied for the NL's third and final wild-card spot, but Cincinnati can clinch a berth with a win or a New York loss.
