Today's Live Baseball Scores: Real-Time Updates, Key Plays & Standings
• Hot Trendy News
Baseball scores took center stage on Saturday, October 11 as the 2025 MLB Division Series schedule produced three instant-classic finishes that rewrote postseason storylines and sent search traffic soaring. Here is a complete rundown of the day’s action, standout performers, and what the results mean for the next round.
Mariners 3, Tigers 2 (15 inn.) – Seattle wins ALDS 3-2
T-Mobile Park delivered the longest game of the 2025 playoffs and one of the wildest in franchise history. Jorge Polanco’s bases-loaded single in the bottom of the 15th finally ended a tense duel that featured 14 combined pitchers and 38 strikeouts, propelling the Mariners to their first ALCS since 2001. Luis Castillo threw 7 ⅔ shutout innings, Andrés Muñoz escaped a bases-loaded jam in the 11th, and rookie outfielder Jonatan Clase saved the season with a leaping grab at the wall in the 13th. Seattle will open the ALCS in Toronto on Tuesday night.
Cubs 4, Brewers 3 – Chicago wins NLDS 3-2
Down 3-1 entering the eighth, the Cubs stunned a sell-out crowd at American Family Field. Michael Busch cut the deficit with a solo blast, Seiya Suzuki tied the game with a two-out RBI double, and Nico Hoerner’s perfectly executed squeeze bunt brought home the go-ahead run in the ninth. All-Star closer Adbert Alzolay then struck out the side to seal Chicago’s first trip to the NLCS since 2017. The Brewers, owners of the NL’s best regular-season record, head into an uncertain winter after another October letdown.
Dodgers 4, Phillies 3 – Los Angeles wins NLDS 3-2
For the second straight year, the Dodgers survived a winner-take-all Game 5 thriller, this time edging Philadelphia at Citizens Bank Park. Mookie Betts homered on the game’s first pitch, Max Muncy added a two-run shot, and the bullpen delivered five scoreless frames after Walker Buehler exited in the fifth. Bryce Harper’s opposite-field drive died on the warning track for the final out, leaving the sell-out crowd silent and setting up a star-studded Cubs-Dodgers NLCS that begins Monday at Wrigley Field.

• Next round matchups: Mariners vs. Blue Jays in the ALCS and Cubs vs. Dodgers in the NLCS promise coast-to-coast intrigue, MVP candidates galore, and enormous TV ratings.
Key player of the day
Jorge Polanco (SEA): 3-for-6, walk-off single, slick defense at second. The mid-season acquisition validated the trade in one unforgettable swing.
