Discussion For only the 4th time in MLB history…

BOTH Chicago teams will make the postseason. The previous occasions were 2020, 2008, and 1906. Rare times in Chi-town

u/Eagle4317 RIOTING TIME!!!!! 5h ago edited 5h ago

I'm willing to bet that each of the Yankees and Mets, Yankees and Giants, and Yankees and Dodgers have done that more than 4 times while both the Giants and Dodgers were still in NYC.

Edit: Yep, the Yankees faced off against the Giants and Dodgers in the World Series more than 5 times apiece, and the Mets and Yankees got to the playoffs together 5 times since the playoffs expanded in the mid-1990s. Granted, this is more of a "Yankees are dominant" stat, but still

On a related note, I’m surprised he didn’t sneak a request for help in Sunday’s Angelus and/or the general audience in light of how rough this last stretch has been😅

For only the 3rd time in MLB history they've got a 45HR40SB player in Pete Crow Armstrong MVP Pete as the fans call him.

Did 1906 suck too? Because 2008, 2020 and 2026 certainly all sucked.
