NEW YORK – Major League removes the fall classics to be announced on Tuesday if both league championship series are short.

Major League Baseball said last year that if the Championship Series ends on October 19, Game 1 will rise from October 25 to October 22, when both leagues plan to pass Game 5.

Since the LCS expanded to seven-seven games in 1985, the two leagues ended in four to five games in 1989, 2001, 2002, 2002, 2014 and 2022. Last year was MLB's announcement of flexible schedules.

The seventh game of this year's World Series will be held on November 1. The World Series ended in November 2001, 2009, 2010, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2017, 2021, 2022 and 2023 until November 5, 2022.

The World Series is scheduled to begin on Friday of the fifth year. Until 2022, the series has not started on Friday since 1915.

The two NL Division Series will have an extra day off between Game 1, a format that allows the team to get the same pitcher to start games 1 and 4, as well as games 2 and 5 during a normal four-day break. Last year, the AL Division series had additional days off.

All four best three wildcard series are scheduled to be carried out continuously from September 30 to October 2 at higher seed sites.

Twelve teams enter the playoffs in a format that starts in 2022. The first two teams in each league have won the first round next to the first round, while the No. 3 seed's sixth and Season 4 matches are 5th. The taller seeds will be home in every best series.

In the best five division series, the top seed plays the 4-VS.-5 champion and the second seed plays the 3-VS.-6 champion. The department series will have a familiar format for higher seed houses in matches 1 and 2 and if necessary it is match 5.

The AL Division Series will start travel days from October 4 to 5, and then go to other sites for competition from October 7 to 8. Game 5 will be October 10th.

The NL Division Series will begin on October 4, with the competition held on October 5, and then switch to other cities from October 8 to 9. After another travel day, the fifth game will be held on October 11.

The AL Championship Series will begin on October 12, with the NL Championship Series starting the next day, with several days off each game after the second game.
