For the 113th installment of the World Series, we have a Los Angeles Dodgers team that hasn't won baseball's ultimate prize since 1988, the year Kirk Gibson famously limped around the bases, against a Houston Astros team that has never won a World Series. Both teams used big summer trades to fuel their postseason runs — the Dodgers getting Yu Darvish and the Astros adding Justin Verlander. The Dodgers steamrolled through the first two rounds of the postseason, only losing one game.
