The World Series has arrived, marking the final stop of the MLB season before a six-month hiatus.

It's the Philadelphia Phillies versus the Houston Astros with everything on the line, and both teams have been dominant in their paths to getting here, though they came in to the playoffs in different positions.

Philly was a six seed and a wild card team entering the postseason, while the Astros were the top-ranked team in the American League.

The two teams have combined to go 12-1 in the playoffs, however, absolutely running through teams en route to the pinnacle of the playoffs.
