The 2022 American League Wild Card Series were two best-of-three playoff series in Major League Baseball (MLB) that determined the participating teams of the 2022 American League Division Series (ALDS). Both Wild Card Series began on October 7, with Game 2s scheduled for October 8. ESPN broadcast both Wild Card Series in the United States together with ESPN Radio.[2] For the first time, Canadian rightsholder Sportsnet – a sibling property to the Toronto Blue Jays under Rogers Communications – was allowed to produce its own broadcast of a Blue Jays postseason series; previously, it was required to simulcast a U.S. or MLB International broadcast.[1] These matchups were:
(3) Cleveland Guardians (AL Central champions) vs. (6) Tampa Bay Rays (third wild card): Guardians win series 2–0.
(4) Toronto Blue Jays (first wild card) vs. (5) Seattle Mariners (second wild card): Mariners win series 2–0.
