List of MLB teams that have never won a World Series – NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth

The World Series it’s been around for 120 years, but some teams are still waiting for their chance to lift it Commissioner’s trophy.

Teams such as New York YankeesSt. Louis Cardinals, Oakland A a Boston Red Sox they have been crowned champions many times in their history. Other teams like the Arizona Diamondbacks, Los Angeles Angels a Washington Nationals they got their first taste of World Series glory in the 21st century.

That leaves several teams without a championship, including one with a chance to flip the script in 2023.

Let’s take a look at the MLB teams that have never won a World Series title:

Which MLB teams have never won a World Series?

The following six MLB organizations have never won a World Series:

MLB teams with multiple World Series appearances but no titles

Three of the teams that have never won the World Series have played in it more than once.

The Rangers participated in consecutive autumn competitions in 2010 and 2011. San Francisco Giants in 2010 and suffered a heartbreaking seven-game losing streak against the Cardinals after getting into title contention in 2011. Now the Rangers face the Houston Astros in 2023 ALCS with a chance to finally take home the World Series.

The Rays were the last World Series appearance from a non-title team. Tampa Bay made its World Series debut in 2008 and lost Philadelphia Phillies in five games. In the pandemic-shortened 2020 season, she returned to the World Series Los Angeles Dodgers win it all.

Then they are here San Diego Padres. The team first reached the World Series in 1984 and returned in 1998. The Padres made it to the NLCS in 2022, but it was the Phillies who pulled off the Fall Classic with a gentleman’s sweep.

MLB teams with one World Series appearance but no title

The Milwaukee Brewers and Colorado Rockies each have one World Series appearance.

Milwaukee’s came in 1982, while still in the American League. Like the 2011 Rangers, the Brewers took a 3-2 series lead over the Cardinals and dropped Games 6 and 7 in St. Louis. Louis.

The Rockies stormed into the 2007 World Series after sweeping their way through the NLDS and NLCS. However, they got a taste of their own medicine in the World Series as the Red Sox swept the brooms in four games. Colorado has won just one postseason game since winning the 2007 NL pennant.

MLB teams without participation in the World Series

The World Series has never been held in Seattle.

The Mariners are the only MLB team that has yet to reach the Fall Classic, though they have come close.

The team reached the ALCS three times from 1995 to 2001. The 2001 ALCS loss to the Yankees came after the Mariners tied in 1906. Chicago Cubs with an MLB record 116 regular season wins.

Making the playoffs, let alone the World Series, has been a struggle ever since. Seattle went through a 20-year playoff drought before clinching a spot in 2022, winning the wild card series over the Toronto Blue Jays before being swept by the Astros in the ALDS.
