A look at some prior 3-1 comebacks in MLB postseason

In order to advance to the World Series for the first time since 2015, the Mets will need to do something only a select few teams have actually done: Come back from a 3-1 series deficit in the MLB playoffs. The Mets put themselves in a precarious position with their 10-2 loss in Game 4 of the NLCS against the Dodgers, giving them zero margin for error the rest of the way. They recovered for a 12-6 win in Game 5, though their road ahead is still daunting.

To date, 93 teams have faced a 3-1 deficit in the postseason.
