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.
