  • Terry Cullen
    BBaasseebbaallll HHiissttoorryy by Terry Cullen Member, Society For American Baseball Research World Series Facts In the history of the World Series, only 10 teams have taken the field with no players with World Series experience. Obviously this happened several times early on – six times in the first four years of World Series play. The most recent, of course, was the 2003 Anaheim Angels. You have to go all the way back to the 1912 Boston Red Sox to find the last victorious World Series team with no World Series experienced players. That year the Bostonians streaked to 105 wins, then an American League record, in their gleaming new ball park. No Players With World Series Experience 1903 Boston Pilgrims (W) 1907 Detroit Tigers (L) Pittsburgh Pirates (L) 1912 Boston Red Sox (W) 1905 New York Giants (W) 1944 St. Louis Browns (L) Philadelphia A’s (L) 1961 Cincinnati Reds (L) 1906 Chicago Cubs (L) 2002 Anaheim Angels (W) In addition, the 2002 series featured the San Francisco Giants, who had only five players with previous Worlds Series experience. Having five players or fewer totals on both teams has only happened six times, including the first three years of championship play. 1903 Boston Pilgrims (0) vs. Pittsburgh Pirates (0) = (0) 1905 New York Giants (0) vs. Philadelphia A’s (0) = (0) 1906 Chicago White Sox (1) vs. Chicago Cubs (0) = 1 1980 Philadelphia Phillies (3) vs. Kansas City Royals (1) = 4 1986 New York Mets (2) vs. Boston Red Sox (1) = 3 2002 Anaheim Angels (0) vs. San Francisco Giants (5) = 5 On the other side of the coin, the only franchise to ever field a team where all the actual participants had previous World Series experience was the 1908 champion Chicago Cubs.
