The 1973 major league baseball season began on April 5 while the regular season ended on October 1. The postseason began on October 6. The 70th World Series then began on began on October 13 and concluded on October 21 with the Oakland Athletics of the American League defeating the New York Mets of the National League in seven games to win their seventh title in franchise history, winning their second of three straight World Series titles, and their second since moving to Oakland in 1968.

The 44th All-Star Game was held on July 24 at Royals Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, home of the Kansas City Royals. The National League won, 7–1, and was the second win in what would be a 10-win streak that lasted until 1983.

This was the first season of the designated hitter rule in the American League.[1]

American League umpires began wearing burgundy blazers with blue pants, a change from the navy blue coats and gray pants worn the previous five seasons (1968–1972). The burgundy blazers were worn through 1979.

A lockout in the offseason (February 8–25) did not result in any regular season games being canceled, but the start of spring training was delayed.[2]

Schedule

[edit]
See also: Major League Baseball schedule

The 1973 schedule consisted of 162 games for all teams in the American League and National League, each of which had 12 teams. Each league was split into two six-team divisions. Each team was scheduled to play 18 games against their five division rivals, totaling 90 games, and 12 games against six interdivision opponents, totaling 72 games. This continued the format put in place since the 1969 and would be used until 1977 in the American League and 1993 in the National League.

National League Opening Day took place on April 5, featuring a game between the Cincinnati Reds and Houston Astros, while National League Opening Day took place the following day, featuring eight teams. In a scheduling oddity, April 30 saw all teams not play, the last time all teams would be off (aside from All-Star breaks and labor shortages) until June 29, 1998. The American League would see its final day of the regular season on September 30, featuring 10 teams, while the National League would see its final day of the regular season on October 1, featuring four teams. The National League Championship Series took place between October 6 and October 10, while the American League Championship Series took place between October 6 and October 11. The World Series took place between October 13 and October 21.

Rule changes

[edit]

The 1973 season saw the following rule changes:

  • The American League instituted the designated hitter on an experimental basis. The position replaces the pitcher in the batting lineup.[3][4] It would eventually be made permanent in 1976.[5] It would not be until the 2020 season that the National League implemented the rule temporarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and permanently in 2022.
  • Rules instituting maximum glove dimensions and uniform color on pitcher's gloves were standardized.[4]
  • Decisions regarding protested games shall be finalized by the League President.[5]
  • Guidelines for cumulative performance records were added:[5]
    • Consecutive hitting streaks will continue if a base on balls, defensive interference, hit by pitch, or sacrifice bunt occurs, while a sacrifice fly will end the streak.
    • Consecutive-game hitting streaks will follow the same guidelines as individual hitting streaks mentioned above; if a player has a sacrifice fly and no hits, the streak ends.
    • Consecutive playing streaks end if a player misses an entire game or only appears as a pinch runner. The streak continues if a player has a full at bat or plays a half-inning of defense. If a player is ejected before reaching an of the aforementioned requirements, the streak continues.
    • All actions and performances taken place during the completion of a suspended game will count to the original starting date of the game.
