Here are the simple facts: In all of baseball history, only 13 teams have come back from a 2-0 deficit to win a seven-game series. Only three did it after losing the first two games at home. The New York Yankees were the last to pull it off, in the 1996 World Series.
Of the 11 teams that have lost the first two at home in a seven-game league championship series, NONE have come back to advance to the World Series.
