Assume all three end tied or two end tied? I'm assuming it is played off now and doesn't go to head-to-head as it did pre second wild card?

This is the ol Left Hander rounding third and heading for home.
I think the division title goes to the runner, right?

If there is a tie between two clubs, then there will be a one-game playoff. The club with the better head-to-head record is home team.
If there is a three-way tie, then the clubs are seeded based on head-to-head records. If they have identical head-to-head records, then they are ranked by intradivisional records. The #1 seed then has its choice of being designated Team A, B, or C. The #2 seed gets second choice, with the #3 seed getting the remaining designation. The day after the regular season ends, Team A hosts Team B in a one-game playoff. The next day, the winner hosts Team C in a one-game playoff.
Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
I'm thinking we currently have a losing 2013 record against both the Cards and Pirates, so we'd be on the outside-looking-in, as far as having any tie-breaker being played at home, if that doesn't change.

If the two clubs that do not win the division are the two wild cards, then no extra playoff game is necessary, and tiebreakers decide which one is the first wild card. However, if the two losers are tied for the second wild card position, or tied with a third club from outside the division for a wild card position, then there would have to be another playoff.

The clubs have to engage in a very awkward contest of Twister, in which the mats are arranged on a field. The fans get to throw fruit at them to try to make them lose their footing.
The team with the best overall contortion score wins the division.

You wait for someone to tell you what happens next, because if you try to figure it out yourself, your head might explode.

The team with the fewest ex-Cubs is the first seed, second fewest is second, and the one with the most is sent home.

What would happen? Bud would declare that the winner of the next season gets home field advantage in the world season and it matters.
"This isn’t stats vs scouts - this is stats and scouts working together, building an organization that blends the best of both worlds. This is the blueprint for how a baseball organization should be run. And, whether the baseball men of the 20th century like it or not, this is where baseball is going."---Dave Cameron, U.S.S. Mariner
