Major League Baseball has reached the World Series in the 2022 playoffs. MLB’s postseason started with 12 teams more than weeks ago, and now we’re down to the final two: the Houston Astros and Philadelphia Phillies. The Fall Classic kicked off over the weekend, with the teams splitting the first two games at Minute Maid Park. The World Series has shifted to Philadelphia, where the Phillies clubbed five home runs in a Game 3 win on Tuesday. Game 4 is set for Wednesday night at Citizens Bank Park.
This is the largest playoff field ever for a full, 162-game season, and you can read more on the new format here. Ten teams — the Yankees, Padres, Guardians, Dodgers, Braves, Mariners, Mets, Cardinals, Blue Jays and Rays — were eliminated in the first three rounds. The Dodgers, Braves and Mets all won at least 100 games this year, but none of them won a single series in the postseason.
The 2022 MLB postseason will stretch beyond October. Game 4 of the 2022 World Series is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 1, so that is a guaranteed date. Game 7 of the World Series is scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 5. It would be the latest World Series game in MLB history. Because the first week of the regular season was postponed due to the owners’ lockout, each team had three makeup games added to the end of their schedule.
