It seems inappropriate in December, but the last 30 year tournament to be played is Major League Baseball. I saved this one due to the slight complication that I need to change pitching match-ups for each game. Since there are only 30 teams in baseball, two teams will receive first round byes. Since the best Milwaukee Brewer team was from their AL days, they will play in the AL side giving each 15 teams. The first round will be a best of 5, all rounds after that a best of 7. All teams will use a 4 man pitching rotation, since the effect of 3 days rest can not be factored. Here are the match-ups.
American League
1993 Toronto (9) vs 1991 Minnesota (8) - winner to play 1998 New York Yankees (1)
2008 Tampa Bay (13) vs 2002 Anaheim (4)
1982 Milwaukee (12) vs 2005 Chicago White Sox (5)
2010 Texas (11) vs 2004 Boston (6)
