Aviators Heading to Divisional Series
All playoffs end with joy on one side and despair on the other. Today, the Carolina Aviators are the ones feeling overwhelmed with excitement, and the St. Louis Cardinals are the ones thinking about what they could have done differently.

The Aviators took a 7-1 victory at Busch Stadium today, which gave Carolina a 4-2 series win.

With the win, Carolina will advance to play in the Divisional Series.

"We aren't ready to go home yet," said Aviators second baseman Corey Seager, who was named series MVP.

The Divisional Series matchups and schedule will be announced after the Wild Card Series finishes.
