SUNDAY’S HIGHLIGHTS

Blue Jays 2, Red Sox 1:

Aaron Sanchez took a nohitter into the seventh inning and Troy Tulowitzki singled to break an eighth-inning tie to help Toronto clinch the A.L.’s top wild-card berth. Toronto clinched a spot in the postseason when Detroit lost to Atlanta 1-0 earlier. With their win in Boston, the Blue Jays earned the right to host the Orioles in a one-game playoff on Tuesday. The Red Sox, who lost five of their last six games, will start their A.L. Division Series against the Indians on Thursday in Cleveland.

Cardinals 10, Pirates 4:

Matt Carpenter homered and Randal Grichuk keyed a sixrun seventh-inning, but St. Louis will miss the playoffs for the first time since 2010 because the Giants beat the Dodgers.

Orioles 5, Yankees 2:

Matt Wieters homered from both sides of the plate, and Baltimore secured a wildcard berth and a spot in the postseason for the third time in five years. Zach Britton got five outs in a non-save situation and finished perfect in 47 save chances this year with a 0.54 ERA.

Braves 1, Tigers 0:

Detroit was eliminated from playoff contention when Julio Teheran matched a career high with 12 strikeouts and Freddie Freeman hit a firstinning sacrifice fly that led Atlanta to victory in the last game at Turner Field.

Nationals 10, Marlins 7:

Max Scherzer earned his 20th victory and drove in a career-high four runs as the N.L. East champion Nationals, who will face Los Angeles in the Division Series, finished the regular season 95-67, a 12-game improvement in manager Dusty Baker’s first season.

Cubs 7, Reds 4:

Matt Szczur doubled home two runs with two outs in the ninth to break a 4-4 tie, and Miguel Montero followed with a homer as Chicago earned victory No. 103. The Cubs led the majors with their most victories since 1910.
