October Fever: MLB Playoffs Are Here, and BurgerFi Is Your Game Day MVP!\

As the MLB regular season inches toward its thrilling conclusion, baseball fans across the nation are gearing up for the most exciting time of the year – the MLB playoffs. The playoff picture has taken shape, and the anticipation is palpable.

In the 2023 MLB playoff race, some familiar faces like the Atlanta Braves have already secured their spots, clinching their sixth consecutive division title. The playoff picture is now nearly set. A hearty congrats to our clinchers, Baltimore, Minnesota, Houston, Atlanta, Milwaukee, and The Dodgers.

But what really spices up the playoff race is the wild-card competition. In the American League, a three-way brawl for more postseason action is in full swing as the matchups between the Rays, Blue Jays, and Rangers are underway.

Over in the National League, it was a jam-packed race with six teams vying for three wild-card spots. The Phillies, Cubs, Diamondbacks, Reds, Marlins, and Giants were separated by just four games, until Philadelphia ran away with the top spot and the thinnest of margins saw the Marlins and Diamondbacks secure their postseason future.

However, this year’s playoff picture also showcases notable absentees. The Yankees, Mets, Padres, and Cardinals, all expected contenders in 2023, have faced disappointing seasons. The Angels, who harbored playoff hopes, saw their chances dashed with the loss of Shohei Ohtani due to injury.

As the postseason approaches, the excitement is building, and fans are getting ready to cheer for their favorite teams. And what better way to enjoy the MLB playoffs than with the perfect game day meal from BurgerFi!

Close your eyes, hear the roar of the crowd, and imagine yourself yelling out to the vendor, “I’ll take four down here!” Elevate your playoff experience and take it a step further and hit it out of the park with our crispy, crunchy Fresh-Cut Fries salted to perfection, our juicy and craveable cheeseburgers that transport you to the ballpark, and don’t forget our lineup of decadent shakes.
