This was the second straight postseason meeting between the Blue Jays and Rangers.

The Blue Jays took Game 3 in extra innings, capped off by an error made by Texas' Rougned Odor while attempting a double play — the throw went wide of first baseman Mitch Moreland, which allowed Toronto's Josh Donaldson to run to home plate and clinch the series win for the Blue Jays.

This is the last postseason series win by the Blue Jays, as well as the last postseason series ever played at Globe Life Park.

This was the second postseason meeting between the Cubs and Giants. Their last meeting was in the 1989 NLCS, which the Giants won in five games. The Cubs defeated the Giants in four games to advance to the NLCS for the second year in a row. The Cubs prevailed in a 1–0 shutout in Game 1, and took Game 2 by three runs to go up 2–0 in the series headed to San Francisco. The Giants narrowly prevailed in an ugly 13-inning Game 3 to avoid a sweep, however the Cubs would close out the series with a 6–5 win in Game 4. In Game 4, the Cubs became the first team since 1986 to overcome a 3-run deficit when trailing after eight innings and win the game. However, the Cubs were the first team to complete the feat without requiring extra innings.

The Giants were denied the chance to win a fourth World Series title in seven years, officially ending their dynasty. The Giants would not return to the postseason again until 2021.

Both teams would meet again in the 2019 NLDS, which the Nationals won by also overcoming a 2–1 series deficit.

The Indians defeated the Blue Jays in five games to return to the World Series for the first time since 1997. The Indians narrowly took Games 1 and 2 in Cleveland, and when the series shifted to Toronto, they went up 3–0 in the series with a 4–2 win in Game 3. The Blue Jays took Game 4 by four runs to avoid a sweep, however the Indians would close out the series with a 3–0 shutout in Game 5.

The Indians set an MLB record with the lowest batting average by a winning team in a postseason series, hitting just .168 against the Blue Jays. They also became the first club to win the AL pennant on the road since the Chicago White Sox did so at Angel Stadium in 2005. As of 2023, this is the last time the Indians won the AL pennant.

The 2016 ALCS was part of a streak of success for Cleveland-based teams against their Toronto counterparts, as the NBA’s Cleveland Cavaliers also defeated the Toronto Raptors in the NBA playoffs in the 2016 Eastern Conference Finals, and the Eastern Conference Semifinals in both 2017 and 2018.

This was the second postseason meeting between the Cubs and Dodgers. They had last met in the 2008 NLDS, which the Dodgers won in a sweep. The Cubs defeated the Dodgers in six games, advancing to the World Series for the first time since 1945.

Both teams split the first two games in Chicago. When the series shifted to Los Angeles for Game 3, the Dodgers shut out the Cubs by a 6–0 score to go up 2–1 in the series. The Cubs blew out the Dodgers in Game 4 to even the series, and then took Game 5 by an 8–4 score to go up 3–2 in the series headed back home. In Game 6, the Cubs shut out the Dodgers, 5–0, to end their long pennant drought and return to the World Series.

As of 2023, this is the last time the Cubs won the NL pennant. Even so, they no longer hold the longest pennant drought in MLB, as with their win over the Dodgers, the Seattle Mariners, who have yet to win a pennant since their inception in 1977, now hold the longest pennant drought. The team with the longest pennant drought in the National League now became the Pittsburgh Pirates, who last won it in 1979.

Both teams would meet again in the NLCS the next year, which the Dodgers won in five games.

This World Series featured the two teams with the longest championship droughts in the league - the Cubs' last championship came in 1908, while the Indians' last title was in 1948. In what is considered by many to be one of the greatest World Series ever played, the Cubs defeated the Indians in seven games to win their first title in 108 years, officially ending the Curse of the Billy Goat. The Cubs became the sixth team in World Series history to overcome a 3–1 series deficit to win the title, and the first team to do so since the Kansas City Royals in 1985.

In Cleveland, the Indians took Game 1 in a 6–0 shutout, while in Game 2, the Cubs prevailed by a 5–1 score to win their first World Series game since 1945 and even the series headed back to Chicago. In the first World Series game played at Wrigley Field since 1945, the Indians, with help from four pitchers - Josh Tomlin, Andrew Miller, Bryan Shaw, and Cody Allen, shut out the Cubs by a 1–0 score to take a 2–1 series lead. The Indians then took Game 4 by a 7–2 score to go up 3–1 in the series. In Game 5, the Cubs prevailed by a 3–2 score thanks to excellent pitching performances from Jon Lester and Aroldis Chapman to win their first home World Series game since 1945, sending the series back to Cleveland. In Game 6, the Cubs blew out the Indians, 9–3, to force a seventh game, and also made National League history as Jake Arrieta became the first NL starting pitcher to win two road games in a single World Series since Bob Gibson in 1967.

Game 7 was the most notable contest of the series - the Indians, thanks to a 2-run home run from Rajai Davis, tied the game at six runs a piece. The game went into extra innings, and was then hit with a rain delay for 17 minutes. The Cubs then scored two runs in the top of the tenth. The Indians scored one more run in the bottom of the tenth to cut the Cubs' lead to one, but Kris Bryant picked up an infield ground ball and threw it to Anthony Rizzo, securing the title for the Cubs.

The Cubs' victory was the first World Series title for Chicago since 2005, when the Chicago White Sox swept the Houston Astros to end the Curse of the Black Sox. This marked the first time that the Cubs had won the World Series while playing at Wrigley Field. As of 2022, this is the last time that a team from either Ohio or Illinois appeared in the World Series.

After the loss, the Indians now became the team with the longest World Series title drought, which stood at 68 years, and is now 75 years.

Broadcasting

This was third year of eight-year U.S. TV contracts with ESPN, Fox Sports, and TBS. ESPN aired the National League Wild Card Game, Fox Sports 1 and MLB Network split the National League Division Series, and the Fox broadcast network and Fox Sports 1 split the National League Championship Series. TBS had the American League Wild Card Game, Division Series, and Championship Series, with sister network TNT used as an overflow channel. The World Series then aired on the Fox broadcast network for the 17th consecutive year.
