The MLB season is coming to a close with the final playoff races coming down to the wire. Although the Yankee's won't make the playoffs in Derek Jeter's final season, other teams around the league have punched their ticket and are currently fighting the hangover after the celebration.
After the grind of a 162 game season, players deserve a chance to unwind and celebrate their achievement. However this year, some teams may be going slightly overboard, and taking the "turn down for what?" motto to a new level. Bust out the champagne, because here's a look at the recent postseason celebration parties that we all wish we got the invite for.

Los Angeles Dodgers
You knew the Dodgers would go ham during their celebration, especially with Yasiel Puig running the circus. With the highest payroll in baseball and Clayton Kershaw heading up the rotation, many still believe the Dodgers are the favorite to win it all.
Pittsburgh Pirates
Led by Andrew McCutchen, the Pirates have made it to consecutive playoffs for the first time since 1991-92. A lot of work remains for the Pirates going forward, but they're fans are rallying behind them hoping they can make a push and win their first title since 1979.

Washington Nationals
One of the best young teams in baseball, the Nationals could make a major move in the playoffs. With a developing Bryce Harper, and steady pitching staff, the Nat's have plenty of reason to celebrate.
Well that was epic!! What a night with the guys..Also thank you DC Fire! Helmet is on point! #NLEastChamps pic.twitter.com/zGM6WwkYQH — Bryce Harper (@Bharper3407) September 17, 2014

Baltimore Orioles
Buck Showalter and Andrew Jones have led the O's back to another postseason birth after taking down the AL East. Jones started a new trend that'll quickly catch on, as he interacted with the fans, and even hit a few in the face with pies.

Los Angeles Angels
The Angels ran away with the AL West after the Oakland A's had a horrific September. With Mike Trout, Albert Pujols and a rather stacked up pitching staff, the Angels could make a serious run into October baseball.
The @Angels clinched in the 2nd best way possible, according to @williamfleitch’s rankings: http://t.co/3z9FfHmGMR pic.twitter.com/aM5wV4N6Cp
