Interesting, I didn’t know that. So all World Series matchups in the expansion era, have included at least one of the original 16 franchises.

The Expos/Nationals franchise has never been to the world Series. Stay tuned to see if they make history.

Of the expansion teams, the Marlins, Blue Jays, Royals, and Mets have twice won the World Series. The Astros, Diamondbacks, and Angels have won once. The Rockies, Brewers, and Rays have been in one World Series but lost. The Padres and Rangers have been in two World Series and lost both times.

The only teams which have never been in a World Series are the Mariners and the Nationals. The Nationals (formerly Expos) date back to 1969 and the Mariners to 1977.
