Tuesday night occasions the onset of the 2016 MLB postseason, as the Blue Jays host the Orioles in the American League Wild Card Game. The winner gets to match wits and skills with the Rangers in the American League Division Series. We've already amply previewed the Baltimore-Toronto clash, and now it's time for some additional soothsaying.

Yep, in this particular Strat sim the Orioles prevailed by a score of 6-2. As such, all the privileges of conquest go to Baltimore. As you'll find in the postgame write-up, this pretend playoff encounter featured home runs aplenty and a blown save for each team.
Congratulations, Orioles, on your simulated triumph.
