2020 World Series

Updated: 12/10/2025, 10:39:34 AM Wikipedia source

The 2020 World Series was the championship series of Major League Baseball's 2020 season. The 116th World Series was a best-of-seven-playoff between the American League (AL) champion Tampa Bay Rays and the National League (NL) champion Los Angeles Dodgers. The Dodgers defeated the Rays to win the series in six games for their first championship since 1988. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the entire series was played at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, from October 20 to October 27, with the ballpark's seating capacity limited to 25 percent (11,500 fans). The pandemic resulted in the regular season being reduced to 60 games and the postseason being held at neutral sites instead of at teams' home stadiums. This was the first World Series to be played at a neutral site, as well as the first since 1944 to be held at only one ballpark. It was the first World Series since 1993 to be played entirely on artificial turf, the fifth all-artificial-turf World Series, and the first World Series played entirely on second-generation artificial turf. It was also the first World Series since 1984 to use the designated hitter in all games. As 2020 was Globe Life Field's inaugural season, it became the first ballpark to host the World Series in its first year since Yankee Stadium in 2009. Despite not playing on their home field, the Dodgers were still designated as having home-field advantage because they had the better regular-season record. Los Angeles and Tampa Bay alternated victories during the first four games before the Dodgers won Games 5 and 6, becoming the first designated home team to win the World Series since 2013. Los Angeles shortstop Corey Seager was named the World Series Most Valuable Player (MVP) after batting 8-for-20 (.400), with two home runs, five runs batted in, and an on-base percentage of .556.
