 Definition of World Series - Biocrawler
This is the first time that the New York Yankees were swept in a World Series in four games (the 1922 series had one tie).
In baseball, the World Series is the championship series of Major League Baseball in North America, played in October after the end of the regular season between the pennant winner of the American League and the pennant winner of the National League.
Prior to 1969, teams finishing in the first division, or top half of the leagues' standings, received such shares; today only the teams finishing in second place in their division but not earning a wild card receive them, because there are more divisions and each division is smaller.

 Major League Baseball By Franklin Foer
Baseball is certainly more competitive today than it was in the dynasty decades of the New York Yankees.
Baseball has always been about money, but even more so since the 1975 repeal of the "reserve clause." The reserve clause bound players to teams (or the teams they were traded to) for life.
In 1995, each league was further divided into three divisions, creating six pennant races, and post-season play was expanded to involve eight clubs, as two "wild card" teams joined the pennant winners in the playoffs.
