2025 ALCS, NLCS are historic matchups<\/title><\/p>\n<p> nn”,”providerName”:”Twitter”,”providerUrl”:”https:\/\/twitter.com”,”thumbnail_url”:null,”type”:”oembed”,”width”:550,”contentType”:”rich”},{“__typename”:”Markdown”,”content”:”**A guaranteed first-time World Series matchup** nSpeaking of all those possibilities, no matter which teams emerge from the LCS, we will have a World Series matchup we have never seen before. The Mariners have never been in the World Series, so either potential matchup with them is unique. And the Blue Jays have not faced the Brewers or Dodgers on that stage. The 2025 Fall Classic is already one of one.nnThis, on the heels of a Yankees-Dodgers series last year, the most common matchup in postseason history. That was historic in its own way, and this will be, too.nnThink about it. We would see a first-time champ with the Brewers or Mariners. It would be the fourth time in the last nine seasons we see a franchise win its first, joining the 2023 Rangers, 2019 Nationals and 2017 Astros. The last time there were at least four first-time champions in a nine-World Series span was when we saw the 1926 Cardinals, 1924 Senators (now Twins), 1923 Yankees, 1920 Cleveland and 1919 Reds win for the first time.nnOr we\u2019ll see the Blue Jays win a third title in what would be their third appearance in the World Series. The only team in postseason history to win at least its first three appearances in the World Series is the Red Sox, who won their first five.nnOr we\u2019ll get a long-awaited repeat pennant and an even more elusive repeat championship. The Dodgers are trying to become the first reigning World Series champion to reach the World Series since the 2009 Phillies. This current stretch is the longest without that happening in postseason history. And of course, the current drought without a repeat champion (\u201898-\u201800 NYY) is also the longest.nnNo matter what happens, it\u2019ll be something we have not seen in a while — if ever.
