The Mariners defeat the Astros 12-4 on Wednesday afternoon, pushing Houston to the brink of wild card extinction. Houston can no longer win the top wild card slot, and if the Orioles win this evening, the best the Astros could do is a tie for second. Before the Orioles game, Houston finds itself three games out with just three games to play. It will be very difficult to pass all three teams in front of them.
The Mariners move to 1 1/2 games behind Baltimore, and have to hope that the Blue Jays and Yankees give them some help against the Orioles, and the Indians and Braves give them some help against the Tigers. The Mariners finish with a four-game series at home against the Athletics.
