Division Series or “Killing the Goose”-Update.

First I need to correct an error in the original post.  The 1st year of the 7 game League Championship Series was 1985 not 1986.  However, I am now combining the 5 and 7 game LCS years to calculate the effect that postseason rounds have on 7 game World Series.  With this year’s 5 game World Series the new figures are as follows:

World Series only (1947-1968):  22 years/12, 7 game World Series (55%)

LCS only (1969-1993):  25 years/10, 7 game World Series (40%)

With Division Series (1995-2010):  16 years/3, 7 game World Series(19%)
