with the playoff races going down to the wire here in the NL, what is the scenario if this happens: phillies, dodgers, padres all tie with the same record. would the padres and dodgers play a one game playoff and the loser play the phils for the wild card? this seems like the most logical answer.

I think if the Dodgers and Padres have the same record, they would go by the tiebreaker, meaning which team had the best series record against one another. And the team that lost the tiebreaker, would face the Phillies in a one game playoff next monday.

I guess that sounds logical, however another option may be the Dodgers and Padres play a one game playoff to determine the division winner and the loser gets knocked out because they now have a worse record than the phillies. I'm not sure, it's proabably somewhere in the MLB rule book.

it would be who has the best record for the west for the dodgers and san diego for the division. The second place will play philly for the wild card.

If somehow ithat happened they would have to play a three or four game series with each other and then the winner would go into the playoffs. It would never happen though.
