Hidden Secrets and Untold Rivalries: Ranking MLB’s Most Legendary Teams from Babe Ruth to Clayton Kershaw
1.71 – 1969 Baltimore Orioles (38th)
The 1969 O’s may have lost to the Miracle Mets in the World Series, but they would come back to win it the following year. Baltimore actually reached three straight Fall Classics starting with the ’69 team, which won a franchise-best 109 games.
1.58 – 2020 San Diego Padres (59th)
Fernando Tatis Jr. and Manny Machado helped the Padres finish 37-23 in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season. They lost to the eventual champion Dodgers in the NLDS.
1.57 – 2002 Anaheim Angels (now Los Angeles Angels) (65th)
The Angels overcame a five-run deficit in the late innings of Game 6 to force a winner-take-all Game 7 of the World Series. They won that one as well to clinch the franchise’s first title.
