	Division Series History by Baseball Almanac
		Until 1969, when there were no divisions, the team finishing with the best record in each league won that league's pennant and faced the other league's pennant winner in the Fall Classic.
		As a result, the winners in each division were now required to play each other in a best-of-five Championship Series to determine who would advance to represent their respective leagues in the coveted World Series.
		However, if the wild-card team and the division leader with the best record are from the same division, the wild-card team plays the next winningest division leader, and the remaining two division leaders play.

	New York Yankees - Home
		One of the American League's eight charter franchises, the club was founded in Baltimore, Maryland in 1901 as the Baltimore Orioles, moving to New York in 1903 to become the New York Highlanders.
		In the 2005 American League Division Series, the Angels defeated the Yankees in five games in the first round of the postseason, marking the second time in four years that the Angels beat the Yankees in the first round.
		The series opened up with a doubleheader that the Yankees swept 12-4 and 14-11, echoing the Boston Massacre of 1978, and prompting the Boston Globe's Dan Shaughnessy to dub the doubleheader sweep the "Son of Massacre".

	American League - BaseballWiki
		With the demise of the American Association after the 1891 season, the National League expanded to become a 12-team circuit with monopoly status for the rest of the decade.
		The American League consisted of the same eight teams from 1903 through 1954, when the St. Louis Browns moved to Baltimore and were rechristened the Baltimore Orioles.
		Beginning with the 1994 season, the league has been divided into three divisions (East, West, and Central), with the addition of a Wild Card team (the team with the best record among teams finishing in second place) to enable four teams to advance to the preliminary American League Division Series.

	American League Division Series - Article from FactBug.org - the fast Wikipedia mirror site
		The Division Series were created after the 1993 season when Major League Baseball restructured each league into three divisions, but they were first played in 1995 due to the cancellation of the 1994 playoffs.
		Typically, the wild-card team is assigned to play the division leader with the best winning percentage in one series, and the other two division leaders play the other series.
		However, if the wild-card team and the division leader with the best record are from the same division, the wild-card team plays the next winningest division leader, and the remaining two division leaders play.

		I actually thought Saberhagen threw the ball very well and to get to him and knock him out of the game I thought was huge.
		One of the biggest keys I think that helped us going down late was the fact that we did play for home field advantage and it kept us focused from the years past.
		You know, I think having a lot of veterans, too, and knowing when to kick in, it's not that easy but the first two games of this series, it seems to work out.
