When were the World series champs and super bowl champs the same season from the same city?
It has happened in three calendar years:
1969 -- The New York Jets won Super Bowl III in January; the New York Mets won the World Series in October.
1979 -- The Pittsburgh Steelers won Super Bowl XIII in January; the Pittsburgh Pirates won the World Series in October.
2004 -- The New England Patriots won Super Bowl XXXVIII in January; the Boston Red Sox won the World Series in October.
After a quick Wiki comparison, it appear that this has happened 4 times through 2008: the 1970 Orioles with the Colts winning the Super Bowl in January, 1971; The '79 Pirates with the Steelers winning both the '79 and '80 super bowls; the '86 Mets with the Giants winning the January, 1987 Super Bowl, and the 2004 Red Sox with the Patriots winning the February, '05 super bowl. There were also 2 close calls: the '80 Phillies with the Eagles losing the Jan '81 super bowl, and in 1989 the A's defeated the Giants across the bay in the World Series, and the '49ers won the January, 1990 super Bowl.
Pittsburgh. The Pirates won the 1979 World Series and the Steelers won Super Bowl XIV.
