The 2019 Major League Baseball postseason was the playoff tournament of Major League Baseball for the 2019 season. The winners of the League Division Series would move on to the League Championship Series to determine the pennant winners that face each other in the World Series.
In the American League, the Houston Astros and New York Yankees returned for the fourth time in the past five years, the Minnesota Twins returned for the second time in three years, the Oakland Athletics made their fifth appearance in the past eight years, and the Tampa Bay Rays returned for the first time since 2013. This was the second postseason in a row in which the American League had at least three teams finish the regular season with 100 or more wins (Astros, Yankees, Twins).
In the National League, the Los Angeles Dodgers made their seventh straight appearance, the Atlanta Braves and Milwaukee Brewers clinched a postseason berth for the second year in a row, the St. Louis Cardinals made their first postseason appearance since 2015, and the Washington Nationals made their fifth appearance in the past eight years. The Dodgers also finished with at least 100 regular season wins, making this the first postseason to feature four 100-win teams.
The postseason began on October 1, and ended on October 30, with the Nationals upsetting the heavily-favored Astros in seven games in the 2019 World Series. It was the first title in franchise history for the Nationals, and the first World Series title won by a team from Washington, D.C. since 1924.
