Me and my brother are having a debate. My dad, which isnt here now, said that you win the world series by winning four games. My brother said they win determining who wins the most games out of four. But ive heard of a 7 game playoff, so my brothers theory couldnt be possible. Baseball fans out there, whos right?????

The World Series is the best of 7 games. to win the series you must win 4 games.
the team with home field advantage gets the first 2 games at home (Detroit)
then they go to the next teams home field for 3 games. (St. Louis)
the last 2 games are in detroit.
so if 7 games get played it goes 2-3-2.

The Series is a best of 7 format. In other words the first team to win 4 games wins

Your dad is right. It's a best of 7 series, that the team that wins has to win 4 games to win the series.
Hope that this helps.

YOU ARE CORRECT
The first World Series, in 1903, was a best (5) of-nine affair arranged by the winners of the NL and the AL and won by the AL's Boston Pilgrims in a 5-3 upset over the Pittsburgh Pirates.
The popularity of the 1903 Series led the National Commission to establish an official World Series starting in 1905, with the length of the contest set at (best 4 of) seven games.

You win the world series by winning four games out of seven. Who ever wins four games first is the series winner. You should take up ping pong!!!
