Following on from this week’s Weekly Hit Ground Ball column, I’ve updated the first volume in our Baseball Basics for Brits series.

Volume 1 takes a look at the MLB season, from the way the divisions are structured to how the regular season schedule works and the different rounds of the postseason.

The Volume has been amended to:

• Add the Houston Astros into the AL West division table,
• Reflect the way in which the MLB schedule is now going to be created,
• Update the postseason section, which had been revised last year and was previously written from the perspective of the Wild Card round being introduced for the season ahead.
