The Philadelphia Phillies and Arizona Diamondbacks are set to face off in a winner-takes-all showdown for the final National League Wild Card spot. The Phillies hold a one-game lead heading into the final day of the regular season, but the Diamondbacks can force a tie with a win and a Phillies loss. If the teams finish with the same record, the Diamondbacks would advance due to the intradivision record tiebreaker. The Phillies' magic number to clinch a playoff spot is 1, while the Diamondbacks' magic number is 2. The Phillies' game against the Tampa Bay Rays and the Diamondbacks' game against the San Diego Padres are both crucial to determining the final playoff spot.
