The 1984 World Series was the championship series of Major League Baseball's (MLB) 1984 season. The 81st edition of the World Series, it was a best-of-seven playoff played between the American League (AL) champion Detroit Tigers and the National League (NL) champion San Diego Padres. The Tigers won the series, four games to one. This was the city of Detroit's first sports championship since the Tigers won the 1968 World Series.
This was the first World Series that Peter Ueberroth presided over as commissioner. Ueberroth began his tenure on October 1, succeeding Bowie Kuhn. Ueberroth had been elected as Kuhn's successor prior to the 1984 season but did not assume the job until the postseason, as he was serving as the chairman of the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, which ran from July 28 through August 12.
This was the last World Series in which the designated hitter was used for games played in an NL team's ballpark in the World Series (as in even-numbered years, the DH would be used in all games, which was first instituted in 1976) until MLB's adoption of the universal DH in 2022 and played the last outdoor day game in World Series history. The next World Series did not use the DH (as odd-numbered years saw the DH rule not in effect for the World Series). From 1986 until 2021, the DH would only be used in games played at the AL representative's park.[1]

Since 1986, the DH has been in the lineup for games in AL cities.
