Part of the confusion comes from all the recent talk about the Jays holding the tiebreaker on the Royals for best record in the league. That tie is broken by head to head record, but a tie for the division or for the wildcard necessitates a game 163.
And, as far as the Royals are concerned, we are two up on them with six to play. The potential of facing the Yankees in the ALDS is a little worrying, but I'd much rather face them or Houston than I would Texas right now.
