In case you haven’t heard, the Arizona Diamondbacks will host the 2017 National League Wild Card game on Oct. 4.

Their playoff clinch on Sept. 24 was followed soon after by a walk-off win over the Marlins, clinching home field advantage in the one-game playoff round. They just need to find out who they’ll play.

The Colorado Rockies and Milwaukee Brewers are still vying for that second Wild Card spot; One of those two teams will visit Chase Field and play the D-backs for the chance to advance to the National League Divison Series.

Here’s what the NL Wild Card standings currently look like:
