The Wild Card Game is a playoff game in professional sports, particularly in the Major League Baseball (MLB) and National Football League (NFL). It allows teams that did not win their division but had strong overall records to compete for a chance to advance in the playoffs. This format adds excitement and gives more teams a shot at the championship. In the MLB, the Wild Card Game typically features two teams playing a single elimination match. In the NFL, multiple Wild Card teams may compete in a series of games. This system enhances competition and keeps fans engaged throughout the season.
