All to play for

It’s the final Sunday of the 2012 MLB regular season and, after all of the thrills and spills from yesterday, we’re sure to be in for even more drama today.

Matt Kemp’s pair of home runs helped the Dodgers to a 3-0 victory over the Rockies yesterday and they still have an outside shot at the one remaining playoff place in the National League after the Cardinals were beaten in extra innings by the Nationals.

Meanwhile in the American League all five playoff places are still to be settled.

ESPN America’s coverage takes us directly into that race, firstly via a Rays-White Sox match-up and then with the A’s taking on the Mariners (the latter game will be joined in progress once the first comes to an end).  The Angels and Rangers will play a double-header after their game on Saturday was rained out.

All times are in BST.
