The 2018 American League Division Series were two best-of-five-game series to determine the participating teams of the 2018 American League Championship Series. The three divisional winners, seeded 1–3, and a fourth team — the Wild Card Game winner — played in two series. These matchups were:
(1) Boston Red Sox (East Division champions) vs. (4) New York Yankees (Wild Card Game winner): Red Sox win series 3–1.
(2) Houston Astros (West Division champions) vs. (3) Cleveland Indians (Central Division champions): Astros win series 3–0.[1][2]
Under sponsorship agreements with T-Mobile, the series was formally known as the American League Division Series presented by T-Mobile.[3] The Astros and Red Sox won their respective series, to advance to the Championship Series. This is the first time since 1999 that all four ALDS participants from the previous year returned to the ALDS this year.
The Red Sox went on to defeat the Astros in the ALCS, then win the 2018 World Series over the National League champion Los Angeles Dodgers.
