Athletics Win Wild Card
The Oakland Athletics are heading to the Division Series, having narrowly defeated the Baltimore Orioles.

Oakland edged Baltimore in the series 2-1, with a win at Oriole Park at Camden Yards in the clinching game by a 11-3 margin.

Josh Nightingale turned in a strong offensive performance for the Athletics and got series MVP for his efforts.

"I'll never turn down another trophy for my mantle, another accomplishment to remember once my career is over," he said. "What I would really remember, though, is a World Series win."

It remains to be seen how the playoffs will conclude, but if Nightingale continues to swing a hot bat, his team will no doubt have a chance.

For the series, he hit .500 with a .615 on-base percentage. He had 0 home runs, 3 RBI and scored 4 runs.

The Division Series matchups and schedule will be announced after the Wild Card finishes.
