2022 MLB playoffs: Bracket, scores, matchups, schedule as 12-team postseason starts with Wild Card Series
Major League Baseball’s postseason kicked off Friday and, for the first time in league history, features 12 teams, a product of the new collective bargaining agreement that saw the owners and players agree to an additional “Wild Card Series.” Said series will see the superior team host a best-of-three series. The top two seeds in each league, meanwhile, receive byes. The Guardians and Phillies both took 1-0 series leads in the wild-card round, and Friday’s slate will be rounded out with Blue Jays-Mariners and Mets-Padres.
Once teams clear the Wild Card Series, the playoffs will resemble their traditional selves: a best-of-five Division Series and then best-of-seven League Championship Series before the best-of-seven World Series.
Below you’ll find the schedule and results for every round of the postseason.
