The 2014 Major League Baseball postseason was the playoff tournament of Major League Baseball for the 2014 season. The winners of the Division Series would move on to the League Championship Series to determine the pennant winners that face each other in the World Series.
In the American League, the Detroit Tigers made their fourth straight postseason appearance, the Oakland Athletics made their third straight appearance, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim made their first postseason appearance since 2009, the Baltimore Orioles returned for the second time in three years, and the Kansas City Royals ended almost three decades of futility by returning to the postseason for the first time since 1985.
In the National League, the St. Louis Cardinals made their fourth straight postseason appearance, the Los Angeles Dodgers and Pittsburgh Pirates made their second straight appearance, the Washington Nationals returned for the second time in three years, and the San Francisco Giants made their third postseason appearance in the past five years.
2014 marks the most recent postseason appearance for the Angels, who have the longest active postseason drought in the majors.[2] It is also the only postseason since interleague play began in 1997 to see all teams in one league and their respective interleague rivals in the other enter the playoffs. This was also the last edition of the postseason to feature both teams from the San Francisco Bay Area, as the Oakland Athletics are moving to Las Vegas.
The postseason began on September 30, and ended on October 29, with the Giants narrowly defeating the Royals in seven games in the 2014 World Series. It was the Giants' eighth title in franchise history. The 2014 Giants became the first fifth-seeded team to win a World Series title.

This was the second postseason meeting between the Royals and Athletics. They last met in the ALDS in 1981, which the Athletics won in a sweep. The Athletics went up 7–3 going into the eighth inning, until the Royals rallied in the bottom of the eighth and ninth innings, scoring 4 runs to send the game into extra innings. In the twelfth inning, the Athletics again took the lead and were two outs away from reaching the ALDS for the third straight year, but the lead wouldn't hold and the Royals scored two runs to secure the victory and advance to the ALDS.
This marked the first of three straight losses in the Wild Card round for the Athletics. In 2018 they would lose to the New York Yankees, and in 2019 they lost to the Tampa Bay Rays.

The Royals stole Game 1 in Anaheim after an extra-inning grind, thanks to a go-ahead solo home run from Mike Moustakas in the top of the eleventh. Game 2 was yet another extra-inning grind, but the Royals prevailed in the top of the eleventh again thanks to a go-ahead two-run home run from Eric Hosmer. Back at home for Game 3, the Royals blew out the Angels to complete the sweep.
To date, this is the last postseason appearance by the Angels, who now hold the longest postseason appearance drought in the MLB.

The Orioles handily swept the Tigers to advance to the ALCS for the first time since 1997 (in the process denying a rematch of the 1984 ALCS between the Tigers and Royals).
In Game 1, the Orioles blew out the Tigers by 9 runs. In Game 2, the Tigers possessed a 6–3 lead going into the bottom of the eighth, however the Orioles had the bases loaded for former Tiger Delmon Young, who in a 6–4 game unloaded the bases with a go-ahead three-run double to put the Orioles in the lead for good. Baltimore's Zack Britton secured the win for the Orioles in the top of the ninth, and the O's were now up 2–0 in the series headed to Detroit. In Game 3, the Orioles held off a late rally by the Tigers to complete the sweep and advance to the ALCS, handing the Tigers their first ever defeat in the ALDS. In their previous four appearances, they advanced to the ALCS each time.
To date, this is the most recent playoff game win and playoff series win by the Orioles. This was the last postseason appearance for the Tigers until 2024.

The Giants defeated the Nationals in four games to reach the NLCS for the third time in five years.
In Game 1, the Giants held off a late rally by the Nationals. In Game 2, Washington were leading 1–0 with Washington's starter Jordan Zimmermann still on the mound one out away from evening the series heading to San Francisco. However, Joe Panik of the Giants worked a walk and prompted Matt Williams controversially replaced Zimmermann with Drew Storen to get the last out. However, Buster Posey and Pablo Sandoval managed to continue the rally with a single and RBI double to tie the game to force extra innings after Posey was narrowly thrown out at the plate as the go-ahead run on Sandoval's double. Game 2 would remain tied at one run each going into the top of the eighteenth inning, when San Francisco's Brandon Belt cracked a solo home run to put the Giants in the lead for good. They then closed out the game in the bottom of the inning, putting the Giants up 2–0 in the series going to San Francisco. Game 3 was a pitcher's duel between Washington's Doug Fister and San Francisco's Madison Bumgarner, which Fister ended up winning as the Nationals won 4–1 to avoid a sweep, handing Bumgarner his only loss of the entire postseason. However, the Giants would close out the series in Game 4 with a 3–2 victory.
The Nationals would return to the postseason in 2016, where they were knocked out by the Los Angeles Dodgers in five games again in the NLDS.

This was the first postseason meeting between the Royals and Orioles. The Royals upset the Orioles in a sweep to return to the World Series for the first time since 1985. This improved the Royals' postseason record to 8–0, surpassing the record set by the 1976 Cincinnati Reds, who went 7–0.
The Royals stole Game 1 on the road with a 3–1 run in the tenth inning. In Game 2, Terrance Gore, Alcides Escobar, and Lorenzo Cain helped the Royals pull away from the Orioles in the top of the ninth to go up 2–0 in the series headed to Kansas City. The Royals' pitching limited the Orioles to one run scored in Games 3 and 4, as they prevailed by identical 2–1 scores to secure the pennant.
To date, this is the last time the Orioles appeared in the ALCS, and their most recent postseason appearance outside of the Division Series. The Royals would win the AL pennant again the next year, defeating the Toronto Blue Jays in six games en route to a World Series title.
The 2014 ALCS started a streak of playoff success for Kansas City-based teams over their Baltimore counterparts, as the NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs would defeat the Baltimore Ravens in the 2023–24 AFC Championship, and the Royals would once again sweep the Orioles in the Wild Card round of the 2024 postseason.

This was the fourth postseason meeting between the Cardinals and Giants (1987, 2002, 2012). The Giants defeated the defending National League champion Cardinals in five quick games to return to the World Series for the third time in five years (in the process denying a rematch of the 1985 World Series between the Cardinals and Royals).
Madison Bumgarner and Sergio Romo helped the Giants shutout the Cardinals in Game 1. In Game 2, with the game tied at four runs each, St. Louis' Kolten Wong evened the series for the Cardinals with a walk-off home run in the bottom of the ninth. In San Francisco for Game 3, the Giants prevailed in extra innings to go up 2–1 in the series. In Game 4, the Cardinals held a 4–3 lead going into the bottom of the sixth, until the Giants scored three unanswered runs to take the lead for good and go up 3–1 in the series. Game 5 remained tied at three going into the bottom of the ninth, until San Francisco's Travis Ishikawa won the pennant for the Giants with a walk-off three-run home run.
With the win, the Giants became the first fifth-seeded team to reach the World Series. To date, this is the last time the Giants won the NL pennant. The Cardinals returned to the NLCS in 2019, but were swept by the eventual World Series champion Washington Nationals.

This was the sixth World Series in which the Giants faced a team from the American League Central Division (1917, 1924, 1933, 1954, 2012), as well as the first World Series since 2002 to feature two Wild Card teams. The Giants narrowly defeated the Royals in seven games to win their third title in five years, capping off a dynasty and becoming the lowest seeded team in postseason history to win a World Series.
Both teams split the first two games in Kansas City with blowout victories. When the series moved to San Francisco, the Royals took a 2–1 series lead with a 3–2 victory in Game 3, marking the first time since 2002 that the Giants found themselves trailing in the World Series. The Giants blew out the Royals in Game 4 to even the series, and took Game 5 in a 5–0 shutout where San Francisco's Madison Bumgarner became the first pitcher to record a complete game shutout in the World Series since 2003. The Giants were now one win away from completing a dynasty. When the series moved back to Kansas City for Game 6, the Royals blew out the Giants in a 10–0 shutout thanks to a stellar pitching performance by Yordano Ventura, handing the Giants their most lopsided defeat in the Fall Classic since Game 5 of the 1951 World Series.
Game 7 was the most memorable contest of the series. Tim Hudson started for the Giants and lasted just over an inning, as he allowed two runs before giving way to veteran southpaw Jeremy Affeldt. The game was tied at two going into the top of the fourth inning, until the Giants scored one run to take the lead for good. Then, Giants' manager Bruce Bochy pulled Affeldt in favor of Bumgarner, who was only on two days' rest. Bumgarner shut out the Royals' offense the rest of the game, and while the Royals had a runner on third in the bottom of the ninth, the Giants prevailed due to a pop-up foul ball by Kansas City's Salvador Perez, which was caught by Pablo Sandoval to clinch the title for the Giants.
It was the Giants' eighth World Series title in franchise history. The Giants became the first team since the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1979 to win a World Series Game 7 on the road, as well as the first fifth-seeded team to win the World Series. With the win, the Giants' record in the World Series against AL Central teams improved to 4–2, and they have beaten every AL Central team in the World Series except the Chicago White Sox.
To date, this is the Giants' most recent World Series win and appearance, and their last postseason appearance beyond the divisional round. The Giants returned to the postseason in 2016 in the hope of keeping their dynasty alive, but they would fall to the eventual World Series champion Chicago Cubs in the NLDS. The Royals returned to the World Series the next year, defeating the New York Mets in five games to end their three-decade long World Series drought.
Broadcasting
[edit]This was first year of eight-year U.S. TV contracts with ESPN, Fox Sports, and TBS. In even-numbered years starting this postseason, ESPN aired the National League Wild Card Game, Fox Sports 1 and MLB Network split the National League Division Series, the Fox broadcast network and Fox Sports 1 split the National League Championship Series, and TBS televised all three rounds of the American League playoffs. In odd-numbered years starting in 2014, TBS televised the National League playoffs while the other networks aired the American League games. The new deals also maintained the Fox broadcast network's streak of airing consecutive World Series since 2000.
