Cardinals Win the Division Outright
The Cardinals go 3-0 (and it doesn’t matter how Pittsburgh finishes because they're eliminated).
The Cardinals finish 2-1 and the Pirates go either 3-1, 2-2, 1-3, or 0-4.
The Cardinals conclude 1-2 and the Pirates finish either 2-2, 1-3, or 0-4.
The Cardinals wrap things up by losing all three against the Diamondbacks and the Pirates go either 1-3 or 0-4.
In point of fact, it doesn’t matter what the Cards do if the Pirates finish either 1-3 or 0-4.
Cardinals and Pirates Tie
The Cards finish 0-3 and the Pirates go 2-2.
The Cardinals go 1-2 and the Pirates finish 3-1.
The Cardinals conclude 2-1 and the Pirates go 4-0.
Any of these three scenarios will result in a Central division tiebreaker at Busch Stadium because the Cardinals bested the Pirates in the teams’ head-to-head season series.
