2021 MLB playoffs: Bracket, playoff baseball schedule as Astros dominate Red Sox in ALCS opener

Four teams remain in the 2021 Major League Baseball playoffs. The Boston Red Sox, Houston Astros, Atlanta Braves and Los Angeles Dodgers have secured spots in the LCS round. The last place in baseball’s last four playoff games was determined Thursday night when the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the San Francisco Giants in an NLDS 5 game at Oracle Park.

The other three teams have all won their series in four games. The Red Sox beat the seeded Tampa Bay Rays in their ALDS clash; the Astros ousted the White Sox; and the Braves fired NL Central champion Milwaukee Brewers early with Freddie Freeman’s Game 4 against Josh Hader.

The 2021 MLB playoffs mark a return to some sense of normalcy for the sport. No more neutral sites, fanless games and the 16-team format; the concepts of field advantage and sold-out sales are making a comeback, as is the 10-team pitch. Yankees and Cardinals lost at Wild Card Games last week

So what does MLB playoff support look like? Below are the schedule and results of all rounds as they unfold, spanning across the League Division and Championship Series, and ending with the 2021 World Series.
