Nineteen times teams have rallied from 3-2 deficits to win the last two games to claim a World Series championship in seven games. (It is worth noting that the 1903 Boston Red Sox and 1921 New York Giants came back from 3-2 deficits to win World Series titles, but those were best-of-nine formats, so those teams never faced elimination.) The St. Louis Cardinals have rallied from 3-2 down to win five World Series, more than any club. The Cards have also been victimized more than anyone (three times). Teams that have rallied from 3-2 to win seven-game World Series are as follows, with home or away listed as the site for each comeback, and teams listed as they were known at the time of that Series:

1924--Washington Senators over New York Giants (home)

1925--Pittsburgh Pirates over Washington Senators (home)

1926--St. Louis Cardinals over New York Yankees (away)

1934--St. Louis Cardinals over Detroit Tigers (away)
