2023 World Series Preview

It has been the Postseason of the Wild Card teams. Three out of the four teams in the League Championship Series’ were Wild Card teams.

Momentum was an important part of the 2022 World Series. Houston blew a 5-run lead in Game 1 of the series, but rallied to win Game 2 to even the series at one apiece. The Astros were shutout in Game 3 in Philadelphia, but returned the favor in Game 4 pitching a combined no-hitter to even the series at two apiece.
