Baseball fans aren’t going to see actual baseball on their television for at least a couple of months, but that doesn’t mean life has to be completely devoid of America’s Pastime. Thanks to “MLB The Show 20,” baseball fans can simulate what the 2020 Major League Baseball season would look like if the year started on time and played out as expected.

While it’s not a substitute for actual baseball, the “MLB The Show” franchise is considered the pinnacle of baseball video games today. At a time when many people are quarantined due to the coronavirus, playing sports video games is one of the best ways for fans to get their baseball fill while awaiting its return. Since everyone could use a little fun right now, we at Yahoo Sports decided to simulate through the 2020 MLB season using “The Show.” Full disclosure: Yahoo Sports MLB was given a review copy of the game.

The result of that simulation: The New York Yankees will win the 2020 World Series.

For those wondering what the heck we’re talking about, we’ll explain. We fired up a copy of “MLB The Show 20” on a Playstation 4, loaded up a franchise and let the computer do everything. We just sat by and watched as it played through each game, made trades and signed free agents. Every result you see below happened without our influence, we promise.

The Yankees will win the World Series in 2020

Back to the Yankees, it was a hard-fought battle, but the New York Yankees prevailed over the Washington Nationals in the 2020 World Series in seven games. Aaron Judge hit .364 with four home runs in the series and was named the World Series MVP.

The entire postseason played out as follows:

• AL wild card: Red Sox (95 wins) beat the Oakland Athletics (88 wins)

• NL wild card: Chicago Cubs (94 wins) beat the Atlanta Braves (95 wins)

• ALDS: Yankees (101 wins) beat the Minnesota Twins (93 wins) in four games

• ALDS: Red Sox beat the Houston Astros (116 wins) in five games

• NLDS: Nationals (99 wins) beat the Cincinnati Reds (96 wins) in four games

• NLDS: Los Angeles Dodgers (110 wins) beat the Cubs in four games

• ALCS: Yankees beat Red Sox in seven games

• NLCS: Nationals beat Dodgers in six games

• World Series: Yankees beat Nationals in seven games

That’s right, coming off their sign-stealing scandal, the Astros won an incredible 116 games. The team tied the 2001 Seattle Mariners for the best single-season record in MLB history. Like the Mariners, the Astros fell short in the playoffs, losing to the Red Sox in the ALDS. Similarly, the Dodgers won 110 games and lost to the Nationals in the NLCS.

Oh, and in case you were doubting the accuracy of these simulations, the Twins once again lost a postseason series to the Yankees. So, yeah, we’d say “MLB The Show 20” knows what it’s doing.

What other team records stood out in the regular season?

With 52 wins, the Baltimore Orioles finished with the worst record in baseball. Other surprising regular-season results: the Tampa Bay Rays (77 wins), Chicago White Sox (68 wins), St. Louis Cardinals (70 wins), New York Mets (71 wins) and San Diego Padres (88 wins).

Cleveland Indians outfielder Franmil Reyes — who came into the Home Run Derby leading the majors with 32 home runs — defeated Cubs slugger Kyle Schwarber in the finals. Reyes beat Schwarber 15-14 in the final round, so it was close.

The usual suspects — Mike Trout, Christian Yelich, Ronald Acuña Jr. — made the All-Star team. Some surprising selections included Toronto Blue Jays catcher Danny Jansen, Texas Rangers outfielder Willie Calhoun and Seattle Mariners first baseman Daniel Vogelbach in the AL. Surprising picks in the NL included Miami Marlins catcher Jorge Alfaro, Pittsburgh Pirates infielder Kevin Newman and Milwaukee Brewers reliever Brent Suter.
