Lottery enthusiasts across Maryland eagerly checked their tickets following the multi-game drawings held on Tuesday, September 15, 2026. The Maryland Lottery conducted its scheduled slate of popular daily and multi-state games, providing participants across the state with numerous chances to secure cash payouts. Players are encouraged to carefully inspect their numbers against the official results published by state lottery officials to determine whether their wagers resulted in a winning ticket.
Headlining the evening's results was the multi-state Mega Millions drawing, which continues to attract significant interest from players aiming for large jackpot prizes. For the September 15 session, the winning white ball numbers selected were 27, 36, 43, 57, and 58, accompanied by the gold Mega Ball number 16. Ticket holders who matched varying combinations of these numbers are eligible for designated prize tiers as outlined in the game's payout structure.
In addition to the nationwide Mega Millions game, the Maryland Lottery drew winning digits for its popular daily Pick series, which includes the Pick 3, Pick 4, and Pick 5 games. These games are drawn twice daily, giving players separate opportunities to win during both the midday and evening sessions. The frequency of these drawings makes them a staple for everyday lottery participants throughout the region.
For the Pick 3 game on September 15, the midday drawing produced the three-digit winning sequence of 9-8-5. Later in the day, the evening drawing generated the winning combination of 5-0-4. Players who matched these sequences according to their specific bet types—such as straight, box, or combo wagers—can consult official payout tables to calculate their total returns.
The Pick 4 drawings also yielded their daily sets of four-digit outcomes. The September 15 midday Pick 4 winning numbers were established as 3-3-5-5, featuring paired digits that offered unique combination possibilities. During the subsequent evening drawing, the machines selected the sequence 7-4-3-9, finalizing the four-digit results for the day's regular play.
Rounding out the state’s primary numerical draw games, the Pick 5 contest produced its results across both sessions. In the midday segment, the winning numbers were drawn as 6-6-9-7-6. The evening drawing followed with the winning sequence of 8-2-5-0-0. As with the other Pick games, payouts vary based on how closely and in what order players matched the winning digits.
The lottery's Cash Pop game, known for its frequent daily cycles, held four separate drawings throughout Tuesday. The winning number for the morning 9:00 a.m. drawing was 10. The afternoon 1:00 p.m. drawing produced the number 06, which remarkably repeated during the 6:00 p.m. drawing with another result of 06. The final Cash Pop drawing of the night at 11:00 p.m. selected number 13 as the winner.
Participants in the Bonus Match 5 drawing on September 15 also saw their winning numbers revealed. The main five winning numbers selected were 13, 19, 24, 29, and 34, along with the Bonus Ball number 09. Meanwhile, Keno participants continued to participate in continuous action throughout the day, as Keno winning numbers are generated rapidly every four minutes.
For individuals holding winning tickets, the Maryland Lottery has established clear protocols for claiming prizes based on the payout amount. Any retail location authorized to sell Maryland Lottery tickets can redeem winning tickets valued up to $600. For payouts exceeding $600, winners must pursue alternative claim methods, which include mail-in redemption, visits to the central lottery headquarters, approved Expanded Cashing Authority Program locations, or designated casino cashiers.
Players opting to submit claims by mail must follow specific validation steps to safeguard their winnings. The ticket must be signed on the back, and a completed claim form must accompany it. Additionally, claimants must enclose a legible photocopy of a valid government-issued identification card alongside proof of their Social Security number or Federal Tax ID number. These documents must be sent directly to the Maryland Lottery Customer Resource Center, located at 1800 Washington Boulevard, Suite 330, in Baltimore, MD 21230.
When claiming larger amounts in person, winners of prizes exceeding $600 can make an appointment to visit Maryland Lottery headquarters at 1800 Washington Boulevard in Baltimore. Appointments are conducted between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Claimants must bring their signed ticket, a government-issued photo ID, and official documentation verifying their Social Security or Federal Tax ID number. This central headquarters facility handles all prize levels, including any winning amounts greater than $5,000, which are strictly required to be processed in person.
For prizes valued up to $25,000, winners have the option to redeem their tickets at headquarters or at select casino cashier cages across the state. Patrons must be at least 21 years old to enter casino properties. Furthermore, lottery regulations stipulate that casinos are not authorized to cash prizes over $600 for resident and non-resident aliens whose federal tax identification numbers begin with the digit "9."
Six designated gaming facilities across Maryland are authorized to process these claims up to $25,000. These include the Horseshoe Casino at 1525 Russell Street in Baltimore, MGM National Harbor at 101 MGM National Avenue in Oxon Hill, and Live! Casino at 7002 Arundel Mills Circle in Hanover.
