2007 Major League Baseball postseason
The 2007 Major League Baseball postseason ran from October 3 to October 28, 2007, and ended with the Boston Red Sox sweeping the Colorado Rockies in the World Series to capture their seventh championship. The field featured dramatic storylines, including the Rockies making their first playoff appearance since 1995 after winning 14 of their final 15 regular-season games, and the Philadelphia Phillies returning to the postseason for the first time since 1993. In the American League Division Series, the Red Sox swept the Angels (highlighted by a Manny Ramirez walk-off home run), while the Cleveland Indians eliminated the Yankees in four games, a series famously interrupted by a swarm of insects in the "Bug Game." The Red Sox then swept the Rockies in the Fall Classic, marking the last time until 2024 that both teams from the previous year's World Series failed to make the playoffs. Additionally, the New York Yankees made their 13th consecutive postseason appearance, a streak that would end the following year.
