The 2023 World Series is set, to the surprise of many fans. The National League champion Arizona Diamondbacks will square off against the American League’s Texas Rangers in one of the most unlikely matchups in the history of the Fall Classic. The first game in the best-of-seven series is scheduled for Oct. 27. Both teams battled through three rounds of playoffs to get to this point, defying the predictions of many experts along the way.
They had a combined .438 winning percentage the year before advancing to the Fall Classic, the second-worst showing among World Series teams, per MLB.com, trailing only the 1991 Atlanta Braves and Minnesota Twins, who were a combined .429 in 1990. Something’s gotta give The Rangers and Diamondbacks do not have a long and colorful history when it comes to October baseball. The Diamondbacks, which have made the playoffs seven times since they began play in 1998, own one World Series title.
