GO ANGELS! Last night, the Los Angeles Angels (I’ll be nice THIS time, Arte Moreno) clinched the American League West division title after defeating the New York Yankees, 4-2, in Anaheim yesterday. The Angels currently lead the Major League with their 89-57 record...and became the first team in baseball to lock a postseason berth by winning their division for the fourth time in five years.
Here is a rundown of the most division titles won by an MLB team since 2000:
New York Yankees: 7
Atlanta Braves: 6
St. Louis Cardinals: 5
Los Angeles Angels: 4
Minnesota Twins: 4
Oakland A’s: 4
Arizona Diamondbacks: 3
Now IF ONLY the Angels can repeat that awesome postseason of 2002...and win it all...and change their name back to the Anaheim Angels. Do you think I was gonna stay nice forever, Moreno?
