MLB division series: Live updates, analysis on Day 5

Four games, one Super Wednesday in the 2025 MLB playoffs.

The division series in both the American League and National League could all end today — with four teams headed to the league championship series. Or we could see the four trailing teams, with their backs against the wall, survive to play another day.

Here’s how it’s scheduled to play out: The Seattle Mariners and Detroit Tigers get the day in motion in Motown (3:08 p.m. ET, FS1) with Game 4 of their ALDS (Seattle leads 2-1). Then it’s Game 3 of the NLDS between the Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field, with the Brewers looking for a sweep (5:08 p.m., TBS). Next up, another Game 4: The Toronto Blue Jays, up 2-1, look to bounce the New York Yankees in the Bronx (7:08 p.m., FS1). Finally, Dodger Stadium fans will have the brooms out as the Los Angeles Dodgers host the Philadelphia Phillies (9:08 p.m., TBS).

We’ll have all the day’s action covered — from lineups before first pitch to in-game analysis and postgame takeaways.
