It's the final week of September, and Boston Red Sox fans are officially on Standings Watch. AL Wild Card standingsThe New York Yankees own a three-game lead over Boston for the top Wild Card spot. If the season ended Monday, the Yankees would host a three-game Wild Card series vs. the Red Sox, with every game at Yankee Stadium.

The good news for Boston: The Red Sox own head-to-head tiebreakers over both the Astros and Guardians.
