A brief history of Major League Baseball
The Cincinnati Red Stockings become the first all-professional team in 1869, the National League (1876) and American League (1901) form, and the champions of each meet in the first World Series in 1903 — won by the Boston Americans.
Eight White Sox players are banned for life for throwing the 1919 World Series, and the introduction of a cork-centred ball in 1920 ushers in the power-hitting live-ball era — Babe Ruth's Yankees dynasty follows.
New York wins a record 27 World Series, headlined by the 1927 Murderers' Row, Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hit streak in 1941 and the Mantle-era dynasty that stretches to 1964.
Robinson debuts for the Brooklyn Dodgers, ending major-league segregation and changing the sport and the nation — he wins Rookie of the Year and, in 1949, the NL MVP.
The Giants and Dodgers move to San Francisco and Los Angeles in 1958, and expansion plus the 1969 playoffs reshape the map — division winners meet in the first League Championship Series.
A players' strike wipes out the World Series for the first time since 1904, and the labour dispute reshapes the sport's economics before interleague play arrives in 1997.
Boston wins its first title in 86 years after the famous 3–0 comeback against the Yankees, and the Cubs end a 108-year wait with a 10-inning Game 7 in Cleveland.
Data-driven front offices rewrite pitching strategy, pitch clocks speed up the game in 2023, and two-way star Shohei Ohtani's 50–50 season powers the Dodgers to the 2024 crown — followed by back-to-back titles in 2025.
2026 World Series
The 122nd World Series — a best-of-seven between the American League and National League champions in late October 2026, after the Dodgers went back-to-back in 2025.
