MLB’s playoffs culminate with the World Series, which is the yearly championship series. It was first contested in 1903 and is a best-of-seven series between the National League (NL) and American League (AL) champions in baseball (AL). Aside from 1904, when the NL champion New York Giants declined to play the AL champion Boston Americans, and in 1994, when the series was called off due to the players’ strike, the modern World Series has been played every year since 1903.
The Detroit Tigers have won four World Series championships since their founding as a major league team in 1901. (1935, 1945, 1968, and 1984),
