Did MLB always have playoffs?
No, Major League Baseball (MLB) did not always have playoffs in the format we recognize today. Initially, teams competed in a single league, and the team with the best record at the end of the season was declared the champion. The postseason as we know it began in 1903 with the first World Series, which was established to determine the champion between the National League and the newly formed American League. Over the years, the playoff structure has evolved, adding more teams and rounds to the postseason format.
