ARLINGTON, Texas -- Baseball commissioner Bud Selig gave his strongest indication yet that two extra wild-card teams will be added to the playoffs for 2012.

"I like it enough, so we'll seriously consider it," he said Sunday night before Game 4 of the World Series. "Is eight out of 30 enough? Is that fair? And that's the basic question here, at least for me."

Asked his opinion of 10 playoff teams, Selig responded: "It's more fair than eight."

"Two more would give us 10, and 10 out of 30 I still think is a rational mix," he said. "But then the next question is how do you do it and what form does it take?"

Selig said this is not the first time he's contemplated adding more playoffs teams, but that baseball's television partners previously weren't receptive.
