The Dodgers won their 100th game yesterday. This means that we can't win the 2023 World Series.
The Dodgers have won the World Series 7 times: 1955, 1959, 1963, 1965, 1981, 1988, and 2020.
The Dodgers have won 100+ games in a season 11 times: 1899, 1941, 1942, 1953, 1962, 1974, 2017, 2019, 2021, 2022, and 2023.
Did you notice that the two lists have no year in common?
Every time that the Dodgers win 100+ games in the regular season, they fail to win the World Series.
2023: 100-62 ???????????? Eleventh time the charm?
2022: 111-51 Lost NLDS to the Padres.
2021: 106-56 Lost NLCS to the Braves.
2019: 106-56 Lost NLDS to the Nationals.
2017: 104-58 Lost World Series to the Astros.
1974: 102-60 Lost World Series to the Athletics.
1962: 101-61 Lost special 3-game playoff for the NL pennant to a team whose name I won't mention.
1953: 105-49 Lost World Series to the Yankees.
1942: 104-50 Lost NL pennant to the Cardinals, who were 106-48.
1941: 100-54 Lost World Series to the Yankees.
1899: 101-47 (American League did not yet exist; no World Series.)
