Most of the divisions in MLB are already decided.
The New York Yankees, Cleveland Guardians, Houston Astros, St. Louis Cardinals and Los Angeles Dodgers are division champs by now.
However, there are still things to settle in the final two series of the season.
The Wild Card races are thrilling, especially the one for the last spot in the National League.
And, of course, the NL East division remains up for grabs,
The Atlanta Braves entered Friday’s action just one game behind the New York Mets for the NL East lead.
The two teams will play in Atlanta for a thrilling weekend series that will likely decide the fate of each team.
The division winner will earn a first-round bye in the playoffs and enter play in the Division Series round.
There Is A Lot At Stake
The loser will earn the first Wild Card and host the fifth seed in the Wild Card round.
As the weekend approaches and the game inches closer, the Braves posted a really cool hype video to get fans engaged and fill the stadium to its highest capacity for all three games.

It’s the last series of the year between the two foes, and it’s a crucial one.
And, on top of all its importance and how close the squads are in the standings, there is the tiebreaker issue to solve.
The Mets are currently up 9-7 in the season series, but if Atlanta sweeps, they will own the tiebreaker.
Any other result will give the tiebreaker to the Mets.
This is it for the Mets and Braves: the single most important series of the campaign has arrived.
Who will come out on top?
