- Embed this noticeI was reading some articles on the MLB site. For a team that wins the first two games of the World Series (or three of the first four games ... such that they lead by two games), 80% of the time, they win the series. Up to now, a team that wins the first three games has so far won 100% of the time.
These two teams have some special history. The last two times the Dodgers and Yankees have met in the World Series, in 1978 and 1981, the team that won the first two games lost the next four (and the series).
Right now, Los Angeles Dodgers have won the first two games against the New York Yankees. It is currently LAD 4, NYY 0 top/6th in the third game.
