NEW YORK -- The World Series will be played entirely at the Texas Rangers' new ballpark in Arlington, Texas, as part of a bubble agreement between Major League Baseball and the players' association, the first time the sport's championship will be played entirely at one site since 1944.
As part of an agreement finalized Tuesday, the division series, league championship series and World Series will be part of a bubble designed to minimize exposure to the coronavirus, which limited the regular season to a 60-game schedule for each club.
The best-of-three first round of the postseason -- expanded from 10 to 16 teams this year -- will be at the homes of the top-seeded teams.
