1. A position player or pitcher can be replaced in a playoff series if the injury forces the player to miss a 7-game series.

2. An injured player can be replaced only on a travel day or after a game that is rained out.
EXCEPTION: If a player is injured in G3, a replacement can be called in to play G5.
3. Only a position player or a pitcher can replace a position player or pitcher, respectively.
4. An injured player who is replaced is ineligible to return for all subsequent rounds.

That meant for 104 years, MLB teams played short during the postseason.
