No. The first World Series, played in 1903, was a best of 9 series. That was changed to best of 7 for the following Series (1905) and stayed that way until 1919, when a best of 9 format was again used. The 1920 and 1921 World Series were also a best of 9 format. Best of 7 was returned to in 1922 and it has been that way ever since.
