You did not mention at what level of baseball you are asking. But in every level there is a playoff system. Most levels from Little League to the Major League it is called the World Series. In the Major Leagues the World Series is determined by a best-of-seven game series between one American League team and one National League team. Whoever wins 4 games first wins the World Series.
The Major League Baseball roster size does size for the Playoffs since on September 1 the Major League Active Roster size is increased to 40 man from a 25-man roster however for all Playoff games the Playoff rosters will all go back to a 25-man roster however any Major League Baseball player that has been removed from a Playoff roster will not be subjected to transaction moves such as being demoted, designated for assignment, being outrighted to the minors, being traded or being released.
Regular season baseball games between the American League and National League are called interleague games. The first interleague games occurred in 1998 and have been a staple of the MLB schedule since. In 2013 the leagues were balanced to have 15 teams each (the Houston Astros switched from the National League to the American League) which necessitated interleague games throughout the season. Before 2013 interleague games typically happened in concentrated pockets during June and July.

Designate hitter(DH)
18 or 20. In games played where the home team is from the National League, there are 9 players on each team.

This is because the American League allows for a designated hitter, whereas the National League does not.
I've noticed they have 2 additional umpires for playoff games this year, totaling 6. Must be a new standard. Depends in a Major league game there is 4 umpires on a field any minor league games normally 3 but it can depend on who can be there.
