Through the 2008 season, both the Dodgers and Giants have lost 12 World Series.
The Mets lost the 1973 World Series to the Oakland Athletics, 4 games to 3.
It's easy to compute. The New York Yankees have appeared in more World Series (40) than any other team. It's simple to establish that they've won and lost the most games in Series history.
I doubt it, because they can't pitch worth a crap, and probably never will.
As of the beginning of the 2007 playoffs, since MLB when to three levels of playoffs (Divisional Series, Championship Series, World Series) the answer is no. When there was only two levels (Championship Series, World Series), the 1976 Cincinnati Reds defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 3 games to 0 in the NLCS and the New York Yankees 4 games to 0 in the World Series. They are the only team to go undefeated in the playoffs since MLB went to the divisional format in 1969.
The Colorado Rockies.
No team has ever lost a World Series after taking a 3-0 lead.
They have not won any as of yet, but they were in the world series in 2007
The Pittsburgh Pirates were the losing team in the 1903 World Series.
No. Every World Series team with a 3-0 lead has gone on to win the world championship.
Through the 2008 season, both the Dodgers and Giants have lost 12 World Series.
