The World Series is the annual championship series of Major League Baseball (MLB) in North America, contested since 1903 between the American League (AL) champion team and the National League (NL) champion team. Prior to 1969, the team with the best regular season win-loss record in each league automatically advanced to the World Series; since then each league has conducted a championship series (ALCS and NLCS) preceding the World Series to determine which teams will advance. As of 2015, the World Series has been contested 111 times, with the AL winning 64 and the NL winning 47. The winner of the World Series championship is determined through a best-of-seven playoff, and the winning team is awarded the Commissioner's Trophy. As the series is played in October (and occasionally November), during the autumn season in North America, it is often referred to as the Fall Classic.
Houston hosts Philadelphia in Game 1 of the World Series. The Phillies erased the Padres during their five-game NLCS triumph. The Astros swept the Yankees. Houston has won nine straight games dating back to a season-ending series versus Philadelphia.
The Phillies aim to shock the Astros again, up 1-0 heading into Game 2 of the World Series. Houston's 5-0 lead after three innings in Game 1 was erased after the fifth, and J.T. Realmuto hit a 10th-inning solo home run to give Philadelphia a 6-5 win.
The World Series shifts to Pennsylvania for Game 3 with the Astros and Phillies tied up at 1-1. Houston turned to Framber Valdez in Game 2 and the righty delivered 6 1/3 innings of one-run ball in a 5-2 win. Alex Bregman (HOU) added a two-run homer.
The Phillies try to put a stranglehold on the Astros in Game 4 of the World Series. Philadelphia did its damage with the long ball in Game 3, hitting five home runs in a 7-0 win over Houston. Bryce Harper and Kyle Schwarber (PHI) hit two-run shots.
The Astros and Phillies play Game 5 of the World Series tied at 2-2. Houston tossed the second no-hitter in World Series history to best Philadelphia 5-0 in Game 4. Cristian Javier, Bryan Abreu, Rafael Montero and Ryan Pressly combined for the honor.
Houston looks to claim its second World Series title, up 3-2 entering Game 6 against Philadelphia. Future Hall of Famer Justin Verlander secured his first World Series victory in the Astros' 3-2 win in Game 5 by tossing five innings of one-run ball.
The postseason ended in November with the Astros winning their second World Series championship in franchise history in six games.
