WJMorris3 Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 When was the last time that the team with the best record in baseball went undefeated in the postseason that year? We can't count 1994 because there were no playoffs that year. In addition, which team did it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leafs13 Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 1976? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJMorris3 Posted September 17, 2005 Author Share Posted September 17, 2005 I will say the correct year is not 1976. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HedleyLamarr Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 1998 Yankees??? Nope. They were actually down 2-1 to the Indians before winning the next three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Has to be before the current playoff format.Maybe the 1984 Tigers?

Cujo Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 I'll say the '89 Athletics.I'm probably wrong, but that team was unstoppable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJMorris3 Posted September 17, 2005 Author Share Posted September 17, 2005 I do not see the correct answer yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrared41 Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Maybe the 1984 Tigers? Nope. Detroit lost a game to San diego in the world series.Was it the 1990 Reds? I know they swept the World Series. All roads lead to Dollar General. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJMorris3 Posted September 17, 2005 Author Share Posted September 17, 2005 Not the Oakland A's of 1989. They lost a game to the Toronto Blue Jays in the 1989 ALCS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrared41 Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 OK How about the 1966 Baltimore Orioles? All roads lead to Dollar General. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJMorris3 Posted September 17, 2005 Author Share Posted September 17, 2005 Neither the '66 Orioles nor the '90 Reds are correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WJMorris3 Posted September 17, 2005 Author Share Posted September 17, 2005 Remember something, gentlemen, going through the postseason unbeaten just means they lost no games that season in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigga Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 If you're talking about MLB, isn't it the 1950 Yankees? If you're not talking about MLB...tell us...we're dying over here.

WJMorris3 Posted September 17, 2005 Author Share Posted September 17, 2005 My answer says the 1981 Cincinnati Reds. Had the best record in baseball and didn't lose a single playoff game that season.::goes to dodge the lynching he probably earned with that question:: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigga Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Of course...willmorris, you bastard, that was a trick question. They went winless and undefeated because they didn't play in the post season, that was the damn stirke shortened season where they had that "split-season" bullplop. Since Cincy didn't win their division either half-season, they didn't make the playoffs.That was clever...it was dead wrong, but it was clever...

Very nice trick question but it's not legit. While the '81 Reds didn't lose a game in the playoffs they also didn't win a game in the playoffs because they didn't participate. It's like saying the NY Rangers went undefeated in the 2004-2005 season. They never lost a game regular season or in the playoffs. All roads lead to Dollar General.
