AL West: The Royals maintain a 2.5 game lead on the Angels
NL East: The Pirates lead remains 5 over the Cardinals and the Phillies now as well.  The Cubs are 6.5 games behind.
NL West:  The Astros lead is trimmed down to 1.5 by the Reds and 6.5 by the Padres
ALvsNL: The NL leads 69-63 with just twelve interleague games left.. The league with the best record in the 144 interleague games earns home-field advantage in the World Series. A 4-8 mark for the NL tomorrow will get it done. If they go 3-9 and the leagues finish tied then the World Series team with the better record is awarded home-field advantage.
