In Baseball the AL and NL each have 3 divisions (East, Central, West) -- those division winners all qualify for the playoffs, then you take all the other teams in the league, whichever team has the best record is the wildcard -- the AL and NL each have 4 teams make the playoffs (3 division winners and the wildcard) -- The wildcard CANNOT play the winner of their division in the 1st round (LDS) -- in the event that 2 or more teams qualify for the wildcard, they will play a 1 game playoff game against each other, the winner of that game will be the wildcard --- the wildcard is the #4 seed regardless of their win-loss record and will play the #1 seed (unless that happens to be a team from their division, in which case they would play the #2 seed in the Division Series)

A "wildcard race" references the end of the regular season when teams that do not win their division are going for that #4 seed (the wildcard team)

Beginning in the 2012 season, there will always be a one-game playoff, regardless of the records of the competing teams.

There is one wild card per league (1 for the NL and 1 for the AL) these are the teams with the best record that did not win either the west, central, or east. For Example, if the Angels win the AL West, the White Sox win the AL Central, and the Red Sox win the AL East, the Indians will receive Wild Card who are leading the AL without being in first place. This means that 4 teams make it from the AL and 4 teams make it from the NL.
