Which baseball team holds the record for most losses in one season?

Answer 1

The 1899 Cleveland Spiders lost 134 games to hold the all time record.
In terms of total losses, the 1899 Cleveland Spiders of the National League posted a record of 20 wins and 134 losses. In the 162 game season era, the record goes to the 2003 Detroit Tigers, who posted a record of 43 wins and 119 losses.

Answer 2

I believe the answer is 13 by the Boston Red Sox. The Red Sox lost the last two games of the 1986 World Series to the Mets (2), the first of which was the famous Game 6 comeback by the Mets who were down two runs and had two out and nobody on in the bottom of the tenth only to rally and score three runs, the last of which scored on the unfortunate error by Bill Buckner. They made the playoffs again in 1988, but were swept four straight in the ALCS by Oakland (6). Two years later, the A's again swept the Red Sox in the ALCS (10). The next time Boston made the postseason was in 1995 and that year they were swept in three games by the Cleveland Indians in the first year of the ALDS (13). The streak ended as they won the first game of their ALDS with Cleveland in 1998 (though they then lost the next three games and the series).

Answer 4

1962 New York Mets lost 120 games.

The 1899 Cleveland Spiders lost 134 games, including 101 road losses. Neither record has been seriously challenged since; and the latter CAN'T be broken.

Answer 5

As of the end of the 2007 season the Philadelphia Phillies have lost 10,028 games, the most in MLB history.

Answer 6

In MLB, for a 154 game schedule that would be the 1906 Chicago Cubs with 36 losses. For a 162 game schedule that would be the 2001 Seattle Mariners with 46.
