"It is the first World Series since 1999 to pair the two teams with the best regular-season records in their respective leagues, and only the third in history (following the 1949 and 1958 Series) to feature two teams with identical regular-season records.[2] Because both teams shared the best overall regular-season records in baseball, this was only the fourth time since the introduction of the Division Series (1995) in which the team with the best regular-season record went on to win the World Series that season – the three previous occurrences being the 1998, 2007, and 2009 Series.[3][4]
The Red Sox won in six games, clinching their first World Series championship at their home field of Fenway Park since 1918 and becoming the second team in history (following the 1991 Minnesota Twins) to clinch a World Series championship after having finished the previous season in last place of its division."
I'm pretty sure that we could find a dozen more first whatevers to list out here! Is there any particular reason that we are listing these particular trivia so specifically? I'd rather see a better summary of the overall series in the lead. Unfortunately, I don't know enough about American baseball to write such a summary myself...but maybe at least include an appropriate summary of the games, rather than just random trivia?
