The Postseason

It’s October, and that means the MLB playoffs are in full swing! The postseason is upon us, and that means it’s time to find out who will be crowned this year’s World Series Champion.

This year, the playoffs will consist of the same format as last year: the American League Wild Card Game, four Divisional Round matchups (two each in the AL and NL), and then the League Championship Series in both the AL and NL. The World Series will then pit the winner of the AL against the winner of the NL.

The first round of playoffs is always the Wild Card Game, in which the two teams with the best records who did not win their respective divisional titles play each other for a spot in the Divisional Round.

The four teams that win their respective Wild card games move on to play each other in the Divisional Round. In each League, there are two different series’ taking place: one between the team with the best record in that league against the team that won their Wild Card Game and another between the two remaining teams in that league.

The winners of each Divisional Round series then advance to their League’s Championship Series In each League, there is a best-of-seven series played between the two teams remaining, with those winners then advancing to… you guessed it…the World Series!

So gear up, baseball fans! It’s sure to be an exciting postseason!
