Major League Baseball announced the schedule for the 2020 Postseason, which is set to begin on September 29 with the AL wild card series, followed by the NL wild card series on September 30. For the first time in history, this will be a “neutral Fall Classic”, according to MLB’s recent press release.
This season, the amount of playoff teams has been increased from 10 to 16. That means there will be a full round of wildcard matchups with eight best-of-three series.
