Question 1:  The two teams that have never made it to the World Series are the Washington Nationals and the Seattle Mariners.

Question 2:  The Pittsburg Pirates haven’t made it to the World Series since 1979.  This is the longest streak other than the Chicago Cubs who haven’t been to the World Series since 1945.

Question 3:  New York Yankees have the most rings at 27 and the St. Louis Cardinals have the second most with 11 BUT the question was other than those two teams, who has the most.  Well that is the Oakland Athletics.  The have won nine World Series championships but the last one came in 1989.

Question 4: The Boston Red Sox have the most World Series titles before their first WS loss.  They won their first five titles in 1903, 1912, 1915, 1916 and 1918.

Question 5:  If you guessed the Braves, congratulation!!  Obviously you know your Braves history!!  The Braves won in 1914 with the Boston Braves, in 1957 with the Milwaukee Braves and 1995 with the Atlanta Braves.
