Keith Foulke was the winning pitcher for the Red Sox in Game One of the 2004 World Series, an 11-9 slugfest. Foulke allowed the tying run to score in the 8th (charged to Alan Embree) but the Sox scored two in the bottom of the 8th on homer by Mark Bellhorn to reclaim the lead. Foulke pitched a scoreless 9th as the Sox took a 1-0 Series lead.
Game 1 - Josh Beckett; Game 2 - Curt Schilling; Game 3 - Daisuke Matsuzaka; Game 4 - Jon Lester. All four pitched for the Boston Red Sox, who swept the Colorado Rockies, four games to none.

As of the beginning of the 2007 playoffs, since MLB when to three levels of playoffs (Divisional Series, Championship Series, World Series) the answer is no. When there was only two levels (Championship Series, World Series), the 1976 Cincinnati Reds defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 3 games to 0 in the NLCS and the New York Yankees 4 games to 0 in the World Series. They are the only team to go undefeated in the playoffs since MLB went to the divisional format in 1969.
With each playoff series being a best of 7 series, and 16 teams that make the playoffs, you have 8 series in the first round (times 7 games) which is a possibility of 56 games (if all of them went to 7 games). Then, in the second round, you have 4 series, so that is 28 possible games. Then, you have the conference championships with 2 series, which means there is a possibility of 14 games. Finally, in the Championship series, you have the possibility of 7 games. So, that is 56 + 28 + 14 + 7 or 15 * 7 which is 105 games. If you take the minimum amount of games to determine a champion, it is 15 * 4 or 60 games. So, the answer is anywhere between 60 and 105 games.

By getting to the playoffs and win every series which each series consists from 4-7 games.
The most games played in one season including playoffs are179. ( Not including Spring Training )
3 or 4 games are played, unless it's a tiebreaker at the end of the season then it will be 5, if they have a 4 game series.Another answerDuring the Regular Season there can be between 2-4 games in a series between 2 teams each however in the Postseason there can be up to 5 games and a minimum of 3 games in the first round of the Playoffs (aka the Postseason) which is called the Division Series. The 2nd round of the Playoffs which is called the League Championship Series as well as in the final round of the Playoffs which is called the World Series can each have a maximum of 7 games and a minimum of 4 games.
