The last time this happened was during the second half of 2008, and the beginning of that oil price crash preceded the great financial collapse that happened later that year by several months.

But the Phillies won the World Series that year, so there's really no correlation since the Giants won this year.

It is the most basic of economic theories that the more supply the lower the cost. Due to the United States increasing production and Saudi Arabia not lowering production the total amount of oil available on the open market is higher than it has been as such being a commodity its price per barrel has lowered.
