Here are all of the results from series I don't have a screenshot for (again, sorry about that).

1953 New York Yankees (#27) 4, 1990 Cincinnati Reds (#102) 2
MVP: Yogi Berra (NYY 1953) .400/.433/.880, 4 HR, 13 RBI, Grand Slam 1st inn. Gm 3 (but the Reds came back to win it in the 9th)
This one was back and forth, at least for the first 4 games. Then the Yankees won 3 in a row.
Scores:
NYY 7 Cin 2
Cin 9 NYY 7
Cin 6 NYY 5
NYY 7 Cin 4
NYY 5 Cin 3
NYY 8 Cin 7
The 1953 Yankees' next opponent will be the winner of the 1951 Yankees / 1926 Cardinals matchup.

1958 New York Yankees (#79) 4, 1995 Atlanta Braves (#50) 1
MVP: Elston Howard (NYY 1958) .625/.625/.917, 1 HR, 15 RBI
An absolute cakewalk for the Yankees, who won games 2 & 3 by a combined score of 29-1. The Braves' vaunted pitching core of Maddux, Smoltz and Glavine were knocked around easily, especially Smoltz. The only exception was a great game by Maddux in Game 4, the Braves' only win.
Scores:
NYY 4 Atl 1
NYY 17 Atl 1
NYY 12 Atl 0
Atl 4 NYY 1
NYY 10 Atl 4
The 1958 Yankees' next opponent will be the 1915 Red Sox, who had a 1st Round bye.

1941 New York Yankees (#25) 4, 2003 Florida Marlins (#104) 0
MVP: Joe DiMaggio (NYY 1941) .438/.550/.688, 1 HR, 5 RBI
A fairly easy sweep for the '41 Yankees. The Marlins looked like they'd let themselves back into the series in Game 3, when they came back from a 7-0 deficit with 5 runs in the 7th and 2 runs in the 8th to tie it up, only to give up the game winning run another 8 innings later in the 16th. That's also 3 straight series invloving a Yankees team, and 3 straight Yankees wins.
Scores:
NYY 11 Fla 2
NYY 6 Fla 0
NYY 8 Fla 7 (16)
NYY 2 Fla 1
The 1941 Yankees' next opponent will be the winner of the 1968 Tigers / 2012 Giants matchup.

1921 New York Giants (#61) 5, 2004 Boston Red Sox (#68) 4
MVP: Irish Meusel (NYG 1921) .439/.439/.659, 1 HR, 10 RBI
Our first series that guarantees the Yankees won't win (although a New York team still did), and also our first 9-game series, which went to the wire. If it had been 7, the Red Sox would've won it. It looked like a close series of lopsided games, as 4 of the first 5 games were blowouts, 2 for each side. The Red Sox's real-life comeback spirit showed itself in Game 6, when they went into the 7th inning down 3-0 and came out of it leading 4-3 and took a 4-2 lead in the series. But allowing 3 runs to the Giants in the 10th inning of Game 7 started a string of 3 straight Giants victories. Pedro Martinez dominated his Games 1 and 4 starts, and did well in the deciding Game 9, but it wasn't enough.
Scores:
Bos 12 NYG 3
Bos 13 NYG 6
NYG 8 Bos 0
Bos 3 NYG 0
NYG 11 Bos 3
Bos 4 NYG 3
NYG 11 Bos 8 (10)
NYG 4 Bos 1
NYG 7 Bos 1
The 1921 Giants' next opponent will be the 1998 Yankees, who had a 1st round bye.

1993 Toronto Blue Jays (#86) 4, 1956 New York Yankees (#43) 0
MVP: Rickey Henderson (Tor 1993) .333/.579/.833, 2 HR, 4 RBI
There technically can't be any upsets when every team is a champion, but this one is close. Especially considering it was a clean sweep of part of the Yankee dynasty of the 1950s. MVP Rickey Henderson started out the series with a home run, and it was all Toronto from then on. Yankees legend Whitey Ford lost both Games 1 and 4, and Mickey Mantle hit a paltry .125. The series ended, much like the 1993 World Series, with a walk-off home run. This time it was a Devon White solo shot.
Scores:
Tor 4 NYY 3
Tor 7 NYY 1
Tor 5 NYY 3
Tor 4 NYY 3
The 1993 Blue Jays' next opponent will be the winner of the 1930 A's / 2011 Cardinals matchup.

1954 New York Giants (#41) 4, 1988 Los Angeles Dodgers (#88) 2
MVP: Don Mueller (NYG 1954) .615/.630/.615, 0 HR, 2 RBI
It was a back and forth series, but in the end the Giants were too strong. Their pitching was fantastic, with 4 complete games, and it doesn't hurt that Willie Mays, Monte Irvin and Al Dark all hit over .350, and none of them even came close to Mueller's 16-for-26 series (.615).

The 1954 Giants' next opponent will be the winner of the 1928 Yankees / 1985 Royals matchup.

1975 Cincinnati Reds (#19) 4, 1987 Minnesota Twins (#110) 0
MVP: Johnny Bench (Cin 1975) .526/.550/1.105, 2 HR, 10 RBI
The Twins were no match for the power of the Big Red Machine, going down quickly in 4 straight. A 9th inning comeback in Game 3 fell short, otherwise they may have extended the series a bit.
Scores:
Cin 10 Min 1
Cin 9 Min 5

Cin 7 Min 2
The 1975 Reds' next opponent will be the winner of the 1946 Cardinals / 1962 Yankees matchup.

1950 New York Yankees (#35) 4, 1981 Los Angeles Dodgers (#94) 0
MVP: Yogi Berra (NYY 1950) .500/.571/1.063, 2 HR, 10 RBI -- 1953's Yogi Berra has also been MVP
Only Game 2 was ever in doubt, with it going back and forth a number of times. The Yankees had a 6-1 lead, but the Dodgers scored 4 in the 5th and 3 in the 6th to make it 8-6. But then the Yankees scored 3 in the 8th to take the lead back, 9-8. Then the Dodgers scored in the top of the 9th to tie it at 9. Then in the bottom of the 9th, a walk and an error put the Yankees' Johnny Hopp on 3rd, and Yogi Berra hit a walk-off single to win it 10-9. Pitching phenom Fernando Valenzuela was rocked in both of his starts, despite only giving up 1 earned run in Game 4. With 2 out in the 3rd, Johnny Hopp hit a routine grounder that should've ended the inning harmlessly, but 2B Steve Sax mishandled it. The Yankees then scored 8 times before the inning finally ended.

NYY 5 LAD 0
NYY 10 LAD 9
NYY 4 LAD 1
NYY 16 LAD 3
The 1950 Yankees' next opponent will be the winner of the 1917 White Sox / 2001 Diamondbacks matchup. (See below)

1977 New York Yankees (#54) 4, 1965 Los Angeles Dodgers (#75) 1
MVP: Graig Nettles (NYY 1977) .474/.500/.684, 1 HR, 8 RBI
Two straight Yankees/Dodgers series, two straight fairly easy Yankee victories, despite the fact that this time they went up against the likes of Sandy Koufax, Don Drysdale and Maury Wills. You can't blame it on Koufax, as both games against Yankee ace Ron Guidry were epic pitching duels, with Koufax giving up only one run in 17 innings (Game 1 1-0 loss), while striking out 20 and getting the Dodgers' only win in Game 4. Guidry struck out 15 in his matching 17 innings, only giving up the 2 runs the Dodgers scored in Game 4.

The 1977 Yankees' next opponent will be the 1919 Cincinnati Reds, who had a 1st round bye.
