Yesterday, Houston was the only division leader to lose.  :w: are a win or cubs loss from wrapping up home field advantage for the NLDS.

Standings for home field - All MLB

      Team      Record GB             Clinched Division?
1. Dodgers   99-57   ---             Yes
2. Cleveland 98-58     1             Yes
3. Houston    95-60    3.5          Yes
4. :w:           94-61     4.5          Yes 
5.  Boston     91-64     7.5          No  (NYY 5 GB) - cannot get best record
6.  ChiCubs   87-68    11.5         No (Mil 5.5, St L 6 GB) -cannot have a better record than LAD, CLE, or HOU.

Tragic numbers for :w: - for 1st - 3, for 2d - 4, for 3d - 7.
Magic numbers for :w:  - for NL Central - 1, for AL East - 5.

Thanks for doing this, but Nats have already wrapped up home field in NLDS.
