The Major League Baseball (MLB) World Series is scheduled to start on October 28, 2009, which is the latest start in World Series history. For the first time ever, the MLB World Series is regularly scheduled to end in November. Assuming no weather delays, Game 4 is scheduled for Sunday, November 1 and, if necessary, Game 7 will take place on November 5. Home field advantage for the Series will go to the American League for the eighth straight year as a result of their 4–3 win in the All-Star Game.

The Phillies had won in the previous season’s World Series against the Tampa Bay Rays. This was the team’s second championship, their first since 1980. The New York Yankees defeated the Minnesota Twins in three games in the ALDS and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim in six games in the ALCS to win their first American League Pennant since 2003. This is their 40th World Series appearance in franchise history.
