Astros 4-5, Orioles 3-2

BALTIMORE — Houston will head into the playoffs coming off the best regular season in franchise history and with a pitcher who’s gunning for his second AL Cy Young Award. Justin Verlander struck out 10 in the early game, and the Astros beat Baltimore in the later game to complete a doubleheader sweep. The twin wins gave Houston a franchise-record 103 for the season, surpassing the record set by the 1998 club.

PHILADELPHIA — Aaron Nola pitched seven shutout innings and Cesar Hernandez had a two-run single in the seventh inning to help Philadelphia snap a nine-game losing streak with a victory over Atlanta. Nola (17-6) was stellar in his final start of the season, allowing two hits and striking out eight with four walks. The right-hander ended the season with a 2.37 ERA and 224 strikeouts in 2121⁄3 innings. He likely will fall short of a NL Cy Young award after stumbling a bit in September.

Mets 1, Marlins 0 (13 inn.)

NEW YORK — David Wright left to a long standing ovation before a sellout crowd at Citi Field in his farewell game for New York. The team captain went 0-for-1 with a walk against Miami during the Mets’ victory in 13 innings. He was removed after two plate appearances as planned, and on defense he handled a one-hopper to third base with no problem.
