April 4, 200521 yr Every year since 1998, the baseball title has gone through the Yankees: 1998: Won 1999: Won 2000: Won 2001: Lost in World Series to Diamondbacks 2002: Lost in ALDS to eventual champion Anaheim 2003: Lost in World Series to Marlins 2004: Lost in ALCS to eventual champion Boston Also, the Yankees lost in the first round to the eventual AL pennant winners in 1997 (Indians) and won the World Series in 1996. So the road to the biggest show in sports has gone through New York for a decade. Pretty amazing run.
