With the anticipation of the postseason building, the MLB announced the schedule for the 2025 playoffs on Tuesday. All four Wild Card series, which are a best-of-three format, will begin on Tuesday, Sept. 30, with Game 2 on Wednesday, Oct. 1 and a third game (if necessary) on Thursday, Oct. 2.

The World Series will end in November if it goes the full seven games, the result of a change to MLB's postseason scheduling approach since last year.

MLB released its 2025 postseason schedule Tuesday, and the first Wild Card Round games will be on Sept. 30. The four Division Series then start on Oct. 4, while the American League Championship starts on Oct. 12.
