Best Answer

2004 Boston Red Sox.

The Red Sox were down to the New York Yankees, 3 games to 0, in the 2004 American League Championship Series. They went on to win four straight over the Yankees to advance to the World Series and then won four straight over the St. Louis Cardinals to win the World Series.

The 2004 Red Sox are the only team in MLB history to have accomplished this feat.
