The addition keeps the playoff format similar to the three - tiered postseason format used from 1995 through 2011, but adds a second wild - card team . Two wild - card teams in each league play each other in a single - game playoff after the end of the regular season . The winner of the game advances to face the 1st seeded team in the Division Series . The home team for the wild - card game is the team with the better regular - season record (4th Seed). </P> <P> If both teams have the same number of wins and losses, tie - breaking procedures are used, with no additional games being played . On the other hand, teams tied for the division title will now always play a one - game playoff for the division title, even if both teams are already qualified for the postseason . This is in contrast to the earlier wild card format used, for example in the 2005 season when the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox tied for first place in their division but did not play an additional game as both teams were qualified for the postseason in any event . </P>
