Mississippi State in the Show weekly roundup: September 5

The Major League Baseball season has entered its final month and a few former Mississippi State players are in the thick of the playoff races, and at least one is on a team trying to land a No. 1 seed in the upcoming playoffs.

Brandon Woodruff and the Milwaukee Brewers have a five game lead to finish with the most wins among the 30 major league teams.

Nathaniel Lowe and the Boston Red Sox have a 4.5 game lead for the second AL Wild Card spot, and his former team, the Texas Rangers are 1.5 games behind the Seattle Mariners for the final wild card spot.

Jake Mangum and the Tampa Bay Rays and Adam Frazier with the Kansas City Royals are the only MLB teams with former Bulldogs and a realistic shot at making the playoffs, but both teams are two games behind the Mariners in the wild card standings.
