About MLB
Major League Baseball is the top professional baseball league in North America. It's a 30-team competition that runs from March through October, with the World Series wrapping up in the fall. The season is in full swing, with teams fighting for playoff spots and division titles.
Top teams
The New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers are the two biggest franchises in baseball. Both have deep histories and massive payrolls. The defending World Series champions are the Texas Rangers. Other contenders include the Atlanta Braves, Philadelphia Phillies, Houston Astros, and Baltimore Orioles. The league is split into the American League and National League, with three divisions in each.
Format
Each team plays 162 games in the regular season. The schedule runs from late March through early October. Six teams from each league make the playoffs — three division winners and three wild cards. The playoffs expand to a best-of-three Wild Card Series, followed by best-of-five Division Series, best-of-seven League Championship Series, and the best-of-seven World Series.
Viewership
MLB pulls over 2 billion viewers globally each season. The numbers are strongest in the United States and Japan, where baseball is a cultural institution. The World Series draws the biggest audiences. International interest comes from Japan, Korea, Latin America, and the Caribbean, where many of the game's top players are from.
