Titles And Year “Last Digits”
Mucho out there, however, digit World Series winning years for teams will follow.
“Holy Esoteric” Andy B.” would fit.
Once again, the Yankees, who have had some bad results for them, in “4” years, (“pretty good” for others– ode to Larry David, a Yankees fan, last I ascertained), failed to title in such. They have never done so, also losing in the W.S. in 1964, “strike season’d denied in ’94 (the denial of best record Montreal Expos is far more compelling but the Yankees also were having an excellent “reg”) and overcome in the 2004 ALCS.
They have 27 World Series wins, an incredible 16 more than the Cards, who are second in baseball annals with 11.
The once Highlanders, who as-they never reached the World Series, also have never won it all in a “5” year. Thus 27 crowns and 8 of the 10 possible digits.
The Cards also have a “confined” title digits year history (cue Pat Sajak, seen at the most recent W.S. and not given it all (Why?) Ryan Seacrest as for St. Loo–“there are” three “4’s–’34,’44 and ’64 and (there are) three “6’s” –’26, ’46 and 2006, two 2’s (’42 and ’82) and also two “1’s” –’31 with John “Pepper” Martin standing out and 2011 highlighted by David Freese’s incredible clutch hits. Add one seven (’67 with Mr. Gibson winning thrice and you get a compact, only 5 digits for 11 crowns.
I will stop there only to return with different “digits stories” for the next 4 on the most titles list (the A’s and Red Sox with 9 and the Dodgers and Giants with 8).
