<p>Once again, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/mlb-news-aaron-boone-is-concerned-about-unvaccinated-yankees-players-20220314-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>New York Yankees</strong></a> failed to deliver the big-name player their fans were hoping for. They struck out on <strong>Trevor Story, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/mlb-rumors-the-most-likely-landing-spots-for-carlos-correa-20220225-0012.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Carlos Correa</a>, and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/mlb-rumors-dodgers-plan-after-signing-freddie-freeman-20220317-0006.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Freddie Freeman</a></strong>. Moreover, they failed to make a run at any of the big-name pitchers in the free-agent market.</p>
<p>The Yankees’ true issues have come from the mound. They can rake like the best of them, and they sure improved their offensive production with the addition of <strong>Josh Donaldson. </strong>Their rotation, however, continues to be pedestrian at best.</p>
<p>That’s why, now that they’re officially out of the race for most top-tier hitters, they’ve finally shifted their attention to adding more pitching besides<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/gerrit-cole-earned-181k-per-out-in-wild-card-game-meltdown-20211006-0007.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gerrit Cole</a>.</strong> For that, they’re targeting <strong>Sean Manaea and Frankie Montas of the Oakland Athletics.</strong></p>
<h2>MLB Rumors: Yankees Targeting Frankie Montas And Sean Manaea</h2>
<p><em><strong>“Yankees, who checked in on Story, continue to focus on pitching. They remain one of many in on Montas/Manaea,”</strong></em> reported Jon Heyman of MLB Network.</p>
<h2><strong>Why Would The A’s Trade Either Of Them?</strong></h2>
<p><strong>(Transcript via Sports Illustrated)</strong></p>
<p><em><strong>“It’s no secret that the A’s have been slashing payroll at a rapid pace this offseason. It all began prior to the lockout </strong>when Oakland allowed highly esteemed manager Bob Melvin, who was owed $4 million this season, walk to the San Diego Padres for zero compensation in return. And once the work stoppage concluded, the A’s front office went in full fire sale mode, sending Matt Olson to the Braves, Matt Chapman to the Blue Jays and Chris Bassitt to the Mets.</em></p>
<p><strong><em>Manaea and Montas have been heavily involved in trade rumors for much of the offseason. And at this point, the rebuilding A’s appear to be more than willing to deal one, if not both of them.</em></strong></p>
<p><em>Especially Manaea, who is entering his final year of arbitration and is projected to earn $10.2 million in 2022. As for Montas, he is under cheap control for two more seasons, which might cost teams more in assets<strong> if they wish to acquire him.”</strong></em></p>
<p>Hopefully,<strong> Brian Cashman </strong>will get a deal done. The race for the AL East will be one for the ages and there’s simply no way the Yankees can keep up with the rest of their division unless they finally add more firepower to that rotation.</p>

MLB Rumors: Yankees eyeing two starters from the A's

MLB Rumors: Yankees eyeing two starters from the A's - Bolavip US

<p><strong>John Madden</strong>(RIP, 1936-2021) ended his<strong>NFL</strong> coaching careerin 1978. It took him just 10 seasons to become an all-time great of this sport. During this time, he won a <strong>Superbowl</strong> with his beloved <strong>Oakland Raiders</strong>and achieved plenty ofrecords, included the highest career winpercentage by Head Coach inhistory (according to <em>ESPN Stats&amp; Info</em>). Buthis longest legacy was, curiously, outside the field, for exampleinthe video game industry with <strong><em>Madden NFL</em></strong>.</p>
<p>In 1988 the <strong><em>EA Sports</em></strong> companylaunchedone ofthe first video game titles about sports in history. Theconsoles that held thisnovelty were the Commodores 64 and 128, home computer models. The riskyundertaking needed a powerfulpublic personalityto lead the marketing campaign. There was no other like <em><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/25-highest-paid-coaches-in-american-sports-20211215-0031.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Coach</a>.</em>So, it was settled that thename of thefootball videogamewas<em>John Madden Football</em>.</p>
<p>Despite a difficult starting, the video gameis now established as one of themost successfulseries ever with more than 250 million copies sold around the world and<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/the-25-top-earning-athletes-of-all-time-20211124-0010.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">incomes over the 4 billion dollars</a>. Undoubtedly, Madden did it again: he put one of his creations in the hall of fame.</p>
<h2>Factsof Madden NFL’s videogame</h2>
<p>When <em>John Madden Football</em> was launchedEA Sports couldn’t obtain the license to use the official name of NFL teams and players, so the ones who appeared on the game werejust approaches to the real ones.</p>
<p>The legendary coachwas offered to buyunlimited stocksfor theinitial public offeringof EA but he decided not to accept. Years after, Madden regretted his action due to the game’s success:”<em>it was the dumbest thing I ever did in my life</em>“.</p>
<p>In the 90’s decade, there was a fierce competitor of this video game: an American video game developer, BlueSky Software, launched <em><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/jerry-rice-explains-why-joe-montana-is-the-goat-ahead-of-tom-brady-20210119-0005.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Joe Montana’</strong>s</a> Football</em>. The game transformed into a small series of 4 titles and then disappeared.</p>

<p></p></div>
<p>It was in1993 when the game got a real upgrade: the license and permission of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-2021-22-playoff-format-how-the-football-postseason-will-be-played-20210913-0019.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NFL</a> were finally granted, so there were no more fake player, team and stadiums names. Also, thetitle passed from its original name to the one it holds currently,<em>Madden NFL</em>, and was adapted to be used on hand-held consoles, such as<em>Game Boy</em>.</p>
<p>In the year of 1998, <em>EA Sports</em>added the<em>Franchise Mode</em>to the game, one of the players all-time favorites. This option allows the player to control the totality of a team: contracts, draft picks, coaches hiring or removal, and strategy during the matches.</p>
<p>Since 2004, an <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/how-to-watch-2021-nfl-pro-bowl-20210129-0017.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">official simulation of the Superbowl</a> is held through a <em>Madden NFL</em> match. From a total of 17 Superbowl gamessimulated, 11 of them were predicted right. However, of the last 5 clashes predicted, only 2 were correct.</p>
<p>In 2009, John Madden decided to end his participation as a commentary voice in the game.<em>The Coach</em>had to record multiple phrases and lines so that the game could simulate a realcoverage just as it were broadcasted live.</p>
<p>There was a trend known as the <em><strong>Madden Curse</strong></em> that involved theNFL players that appeared on the video game cover: usually, they suffered serious injuries or dramatically dropped their level after starringthe game. Stars like <strong>Marshall Faulk</strong>, <strong>Michael Vick</strong>,<strong>Donovan Mcnabb</strong>, <strong>Brett Favre</strong>, <strong>Troy Polamalu</strong> among others, were the victims.</p>

John Madden's legacy: The story of the famous videogame 'Madden NFL'

<p>The <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/mlb-t48464" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>MLB</strong></a>, like any other competition in the US, is recognized not only because of its level but also for <strong>involving a lot of teams across the country</strong>. <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nfl-t20281" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NFL</a>, <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> and <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/mls-t16956" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLS</a> have this in common too. Anyways, in baseball’s elite level 30 franchises take part of the league andare spread throughout the big territory in different places.</p>
<p>However,<strong> there are some places which have more than one team taking part incompetitions</strong>. Not only there are several franchises inside a city or state playing different leagues, but also within the same tournament.</p>
<p><strong>California</strong> is one of those states that has within its territory more than one franchise taking part in a single competition. In this state, there are a number of teams that compete in baseball’s top league. <strong>Take a look at how many MLB teams are in California</strong>.</p>
<h2>San Diego Padres</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">

<p></p></div>
<p>Established in 1969, the Padres are one of the two teams originally from the state of California (the other teams moved there later). They have won the National League pennant two times (1984 and 1998) but lost in both World Series finals. The Pads are the only franchise in San Diego from any major competition following NFL Chargers relocation to Los Ángeles.</p>
<h2>Los Angeles Angels</h2>

<p>The A’s, nine time World Series winners, are located in Oakland, California, although they weren’t originally from that state. The Athletics were firstly named as Philadelphia Athletics as they were established in that city in 1901, but they were relocated evenbefore landing to the West Coast. The team moved to Kansas City in 1955, andthey completedtheir relocation to Oakland in 1968.</p>

<p></p></div>
<p>The Giants were the National League champion coming into the 1904 World Series but refused to play against the American League champion Boston Pilgrims because the Giants manager <strong>John McGraw considered the AL an “inferior league” and had personal issues with American League president Ban Johnson and declined to play.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Still, since 1905 the World Series has been played annually with only one exception in 1994 due to the players’ strike.</strong> For the exception of the 1919 – 1921 seasons, where the series was decided by the best of nine games, the fall classic has been played as a best of seven series.</p>
<h2>The New York Yankees win five consecutive World Series 1949-53</h2>

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>The Yankees are dominant no question about it, but in the late 40s and early 50s, they were downright unbeatable. </strong>The victims were the Dodgers in 5 games in 1949, the Phillies in 4 games in 1950, Giants in 6 games in 1951, the Dodgers again in 7 games in 1952, and the Dodgers once again in 6 games in 1953.</p>
<p><strong>This is the longest championship streak in MLB history</strong>, the Yankee roster had Joe DiMaggio and Mickey Mantle on it during this run, while Yogi Berra and Phil Rizzuto were on all five championship teams.</p>
<h2>In 1955 the first-ever World Series MVP was awarded.</h2>

<p>In the 1955 series, the Brooklyn Dodgers defeated the New York Yankees in an emotional 7 game series. It was also the first series that the MVP award was given to a player, the <strong>first-ever World Series MVP was Brooklyn’s pitcher Johnny Podres.</strong></p>
<p>Podres pitched a complete game in Game 3, it was a seven-hit victory, <strong>in Game 7 Podres pitched a 2-0 shutout to win the Dodgers their only World Series before moving to Los Angeles.</strong></p>

<p></p></div>
<p>Until the 1971 World Series, all games were played during the day, it was not until <strong>Game 4 between the Baltimore Orioles and the Pittsburgh Pirates at Three- Rivers stadium did a game officially begin in the evening hours.</strong></p>
<p>The game finished with a Pittsburgh 4-3 victory and 14 hits, <strong>The Orioles blew a 3-0 lead, and in the seventh inning the Pirates pulled through with a few one-out singles, and a clutch RBI single by Milt May.</strong></p>
<h2>1976 the designated hitter is implemented in the World Series</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" alt="DH rule" data-height="463" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:463" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="DH rule" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201021_BUS_165333_dh_rule_1_crop1603304409922.jpg_166139169_373542e2.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=463" width="740" height="463"></figure><figcaption style="background: transparent">    DH rule was allowed in the 1976 series.

<p></p></div>
<p>In 1973 when the American League adopted the designated hitter rule as a way to have teams have an extra experienced hitter hit over a pitcher <strong>from 1973 – 1975 the World Series was played without the rule in place for those games.</strong></p>
<p><strong>In 1976 when the DH was allowed it was strangely only allowed for even-numbered years only.</strong> In 1986 in the Boston Red Sox and New York Mets series, the rule was adopted for every World Series game played in AL stadiums.</p>
<h2>Sparky Anderson becomes the first manager to win a World Series for both leagues</h2>

<p>Legendary manager Sparky Anderson became the first manager in MLB history to<strong> win baseball’s biggest prize in both the National and American leagues.</strong></p>
<p>He has won back-to-back titles with the Cincinnati Reds in 1975 and 1976, later in 1984 he would win in the American League with the Detroit Tigers.</p>
<h2>The earthquake that shook the series</h2>

<p>In 1989 the series between the San Francisco Giants and Oakland Athletics became world news when <strong>in Game 3 a half-hour before first pitch and with ABC’s pregame on the air a 7.1 magnitude earthquake</strong> hit northeast of Santa Cruz, California.</p>
<p>63 people were killed as a result and there were incredible property and economic damage. The game was postponed and would be played on October 27 where Oakland won and would later complete a four-game sweep.</p>

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>For the first time in MLB history in 1992, the fall classic was played outside American soil</strong>, as the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Atlanta Braves in six games. One year later the series returned to Toronto again, this time it was against the Phillies.</p>
<p><strong>Once again the Blue Jays would win the series in six games and become the first Canadian team to win back-to-back titles. </strong>Toronto is also the only expansion team to win successive World Series titles.</p>

<p><strong>In 2001 the World Series was played in November</strong>, the regular season was suspended for one week due to the September 11 attacks. Game 4 of the series was played on Halloween night, but because it went to extra innings, it ended in the early hours of November 1st.</p>
<p><strong>The game is famous because of Derek Jeter’s walk-off home run in the 10th inning that won the game for the Yankees and he became “Mr. November” </strong>as a homage to Reggie Jackson, who was “Mr. October” for his achievements during the 1977 World Series.</p>

<p><strong>Team: </strong>Detroit Tigers<br> <strong>Position: </strong>SS<br> <strong>Averages:</strong>.349/.381/.550, 36 G, 6 HR, 21 R, 24 RBIs</p>
<p>Even though the <strong>Detroit Tigers </strong>didn’t have many things to look up to this season, <strong>Willi Castro </strong>was one of the lone bright spots for them. His defense is still a work in progress but he was one of the biggest offensive forces all year long.</p>
<h2>Kyle Lewis</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" alt="Kyle Lewis" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Kyle Lewis" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200929_BUS_164566_kyle_lewis_crop1601391494703.jpg_22069893_6e26efb6.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=412" width="740" height="412"></figure><figcaption>   Lewis was the 11th overall pick of the 2016 MLB Draft.

<p><strong>Team: </strong>Seattle Mariners<br> <strong>Position:</strong> OF<br> <strong>Averages:</strong>.262/.364/.437, 58 G, 11 HR, 37 R, 28 RBIs</p>
<p><strong>Kyle Lewis </strong>was nothing short of spectacular throughout the whole season. He led all rookies in total bases with 90 and became an every-day starter for a surprising<strong> Seattle Mariners</strong> that looks poised for greatness a couple of years from now.</p>
<h2>Luis Robert</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" alt="Luis Robert" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Luis Robert" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200929_BUS_164566_luis_robert_crop1601391648193.jpg_22069893_1bab3c97.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=412" width="740" height="412"></figure><figcaption>   Robert was born in Ciego de Ávila, Cuba.

<p><strong>Luis Robert w</strong>as the main favorite to win the AL Rookie of the Year award before the start of the season and he surely lived up to that hype. He was tied for the lead in home runs and led all rookies in stolen bases (9) and RBIs while playing an every-day role on a playoffs team.</p>

<p>The fact that <strong>Ke’Bryan Hayes </strong>was only in the Majors for one month and still cracked the top 3 of this list should tell you just enough about how good he was. Hayes was an outstanding defender and an offensive machine who never went hitless on a game.</p>
<h2>Ryan Mountcastle</h2>

<p>Every single baseball fan on earth was looking forward to seeing <strong>Ryan Mountcastle</strong> from the start this year, yet the <strong>Baltimore Orioles </strong>thought it would hurt their chances of competing (yeah, right). He proved to be ready right out of the gate and was one of the most entertaining players to watch with his timely hitting and power.</p>

<p><strong>Team: </strong>San Diego Padres<br> <strong>Position:</strong> 2B<br> <strong>Averages:</strong>.285/.354/.477, 54 G, 4 HR, 26 R, 20 RBIs</p>
<p>It seems like <strong>Eric Hosmer’s </strong>injury was a bit of a blessing in disguise for the <strong>San Diego Padres, </strong>as it allowed them to fully unleash their swiss-army infielder <strong>Jake Cronenworth.</strong> He played in almost every infield position, played plus-defense, and was a great hitter all year long.</p>

<p>Two thirds of the shortened and <strong>most atypical <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/mlb-t48464" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLB</a> season </strong><strong>eve</strong>r are already in the history books. With the trade deadline also far behind us, we have a pretty good picture of how the postseason pool is going to look like and <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/mlb/Top-25-MLB-teams-with-most-fans-20200528-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">which teams</a> are likely to contend for the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/mlb/top-10-best-world-series-games-of-all-time-20200810-0002.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">World Series. </a>Needless to say, it will most likely be one of the 5 teams from our latest MLB power ranking.</p>
<p>To say that this season has had plenty of surprises<strong> is an understatement</strong>. Most of the preseason analysis and predictions are already in the trash can after teams that weren’t supposed to compete are actually in the race to win their divisions.</p>
<p>There have obviously been some teams that have been as good as expected, if not more, but given the nature of the season, it feels like for the first time ever; anything can happen. So, without further introduction, we’ll show you <strong>our <a href="https://www.mlb.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLB </a>Power Ranking featuring the best 5 teams in Major League Baseball.</strong></p>

<p>The <strong>Oakland Athletics </strong>currently sit at a 23-14 record. They were supposed to be near the bottom of the AL West and are now in a prime position to take the division away from the Houston Astros. Led by late-game heroics and comebacks, it seems like the A’s are going to be back in the playoffsin 2020<strong> despite having a somewhat modest lineup.</strong></p>

<h2>4. Chicago White Sox</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" alt="Luis Robert" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Luis Robert" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200907_BUS_163977_luis_robert_crop1599490346554.jpg_22069893_60d938bc.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=412" width="740" height="412"></figure><figcaption>   Rookie of the Year candidate Luis Robert.

<p></p></div>
<p>Yes, this is not a typo. The <strong>Chicago White Sox</strong> are actually one of the best teams in the league right now. <strong>José Abreu</strong> is having MVP-caliber numbers and standout rookie <strong>Luis Robert</strong> has been as good as expected. Combine their power with a fine rotation and the Sox may be at the top of the AL Central by the end of the season, even with the Indians and Twins breathing on their necks.</p>
<h2>3. Tampa Bay Rays</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" alt="Tyler Glasnow Rays" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Tyler Glasnow Rays" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200907_BUS_163977_tyler_glasnow_crop1599490308334.jpg_22069893_ed432e13.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=412" width="740" height="412"></figure><figcaption>   Rays’ star Tyler Glasnow.

<p></p></div>
<p>We all knew the<strong> Tampa BayRays</strong> were going to be good this season but even so, they’ve been a pleasant surprise. They completely schooled the New York Yankees and took all but one gamefrom them and it’s unlikely that any team can catch them at the top of the American League. They have the easiest schedule for the remainder of the season, <strong>whilethe Yankees and Blue Jays willgo toe-to-toe 10 more times this year.</strong></p>

<h2>2. San Diego Padres</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" alt="Fernando Tatis Jr Manny Machado" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Fernando Tatis Jr Manny Machado" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200907_BUS_163977_fernando_tatxs_jr_manny_machado_1_crop1599490214042.jpg_22069893_ad64ca74.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=412" width="740" height="412"></figure><figcaption>   Fernando Tatís Jr and Manny Machado celebrate after a home run. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Who would’ve thought that the<strong> San Diego Padres</strong> would be the second-best team in the league two thirds into the season?<strong> Fernando Tatís Jr</strong> should be at the top of the NL MVP ballots and the team was all-in to surround him by elite talent ahead of the trade deadline. Newcomers<strong> Mike Clevinger, Gregg Allen, and Mitch Moreland</strong> will give an already impressive team a massive boost. When was the last time the Padres were a legit World Series contender?</p>
<h2>1. Los Angeles Dodgers</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" alt="Joc Pederson Mookie Betts Cody Bellinger" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Joc Pederson Mookie Betts Cody Bellinger" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200907_BUS_163977_mookie_betts_joc_pedersoncody_bellinger_crop1599490269307.jpg_22069893_c6c77481.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=412" width="740" height="412"></figure><figcaption>   Mookie Betts, Cody Bellinger, and Joc Pederson. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Well, this one shouldn’t strike as a surprise given how overpowered the<strong>Los Angeles </strong><strong>Dodger</strong>s were ahead of this season. They were – by far – the first team to top the 30-win plateau and have only dropped 12 games thus far. Their star-studded lineup is perfectly complemented by a strong, young rotation and a solid bullpen. It’s World Series or nothing for the<strong>Mookie Betts-</strong>led Dodgers this time, although it’ll be interesting to see how their inexperienced rotation (plus Clayton Kershaw) will perform in the postseason.</p>

MLB Power Rankings: The 5 best teams in Major League Baseball in 2020

MLB Power Rankings: The 5 best teams in Major League Baseball in 2020 - Bolavip US

<p><strong>The <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/oakland-athletics-t115576" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Oakland Athletics</a> were founded in the city of Philadelphia in 1901 as the Philadelphia Athletics.</strong> During their stay in Phili, the team won three World Series from 1910 to 1913 and later won back-to-back championships in 1929 and 1930. Later the team moved to Kansas City and would be there until 1968 when they moved to Oakland.</p>
<p>Once they moved to Oakland the team continued their winning ways and won four more titles in the years 1972, 1973, 1974, and finally in 1989. Their last major championship was the Western Division title in 2013. <strong>The A’s uniform has been worn by some MLB greats like Vida Blue, Catfish Hunter, Reggie Jackson, Rollie Fingers, Ricky Henderson, and the famous “Bash Brothers” Jose Canseco and Mark McGwire.</strong></p>
<p>Like many of the teams that we have featured in <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/bolavip-jerseys-t137851" target="_blank" rel="noopener">our series</a>, the city in which they play is especially important to a team’s identity. Oakland has become their permanent home and i<strong>t’s</strong><strong> the city’s murals where we got our inspiration for the away jersey and the home kit is an homage to the team’s long-time nickname “the Elephants”.</strong> When you win9 championships, 15 American League pennants, and 16 division titles you are the Elephant in the room!</p>
<h2>Oakland Athletics the Elephants Home Jersey</h2>

<p></p></div>
<p>The <a href="https://www.mlb.com/athletics" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Oakland A</a>’s nickname goes way back to 1902 when then <strong>New York Giants manager John McGraw used the term “The White Elephants” with anger because the team manager Connie Mack was spending money to improve the team without supervision according to McGraw. </strong>Well, Mack liked the term, and to defy McGraw incorporated the Elephant as the team insignia. That addition has stayed as the club’s secondary logo until this day.</p>
<p><strong>The elephant on the front of the jersey is facing forward charging atthe opposition, as a way of intimidating the opponent</strong>. If you go to the Oakland Coliseum you will find Stomper, the team mascot, who is a white elephant and has been around the club since 1997. So, Stomper provides entertainment for the fans while the elephant on the jersey provides all the intimidation.</p>

<p></p></div>
<p>The classic A’s cap logo is what we have used as the team’s crest, the logo has been around since 1968 and added the “‘s” in 1970. <strong>While the logo has changed color patterns over the years, it has been a mainstay of the club and gives the jersey that classic A’s look.</strong></p>

<p><strong>The city of Oakland has more than 1,000 murals, making the city itself a street art museum.</strong> Various street artists from all over the world come to the city to leave their mark around the streets of Oakland. Some of the best murals can be found in Alice street, Chinatown, and the Jack London district. It is here where our very urban style away jersey takes its inspiration and gives the A’s a totally different look.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" alt="Oakland Athletics street art pattern chest" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Oakland Athletics street art pattern chest" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200904_BUS_163876_as_mural_patterns_away_jersey_crop1599242376210.png_22993414_81047c11.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption>    Oakland Athletics away jersey has a street art pattern design.   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>As can be observedon the jersey there are various street art, urban design patterns across the chest of the jersey. </strong>The green A’s cap logo is used so that the crest can stand out and meshwith the background. Oakland as a city has many groups dedicated to street art such as the Graffiti Camp for Girls. The mission of the group is to develop artists’ talents and create opportunities for girls to create street art.</p>

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>On the back, the phrase “Love Life” is written across the neck, “Love Life” is the city’s motto. </strong>The motto was implemented after the fatal shooting of 16-year-old LoEshe Lacy, whose name means “Love Life” in the Nigerian language Ibo. It stands as a declaration against violence in that native language.</p>

<p>The New York Yankees have dominated the World Series through most of the history of this sport. Still, there are plenty of ballclubs that have entered the record books by challenging them and becoming<strong> multiple <a href="https://www.mlb.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLB</a> Champions</strong>, especially over the past decade.</p>
<p>Given the nature of their dominance, it’s normal for people to wonder what are the other t<strong>eams with the most <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/mlb/MLB-2020-season-odds-Who-will-win-the-2020-World-Series-20200714-0002.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">World Series</a> titles in the history of baseball</strong>, and that’s what we’re going to talk about in the following paragraphs.<span></span></p>

<h2>5. San Francisco Giants</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:600,h:333" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200723_BUS_163362_madison_bumgarner_2014_world_series.jpg_1030179834_ea42ac25.webp&amp;width=500&amp;height=310" title="" vspace="5"></figure><figcaption>    Madison Bumgarner was named World Series MVP in 2014. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>World Series titles:</strong> 8 (1905, 1921, 1922, 1933, 1954, 2010, 2012, 2014)<br> <strong>World Series played:</strong> 20<br> <strong>Last played:</strong> 2014<br> <strong>Last won:</strong> 2014</p>
<p>The <strong>San Francisco Giants</strong> were one of the league’s top-tier candidates during the ’20s but they struggled to win at the ultimate stage for almost 6 decades. That’s until <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/mlb/highest-mlb-manager-salaries-ever-20200723-0003.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bruce Bochy</a> came along to turn them around and lead them back to the top.</p>
<p>Under Bochy’s command, the Giants won<strong> 3 World Series over a 5-year span</strong> and became the team to beat in the National League. Now, they’ll likely go through a rebuild to contend again in the future.</p>
<h2>4. Oakland Athletics</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:600,h:333" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200723_BUS_163362_jose_conseco_x_rickey_henderson.jpg_1030179834_26e452bd.webp&amp;width=500&amp;height=310" title="" vspace="5"></figure><figcaption>    José Canseco &amp; Rickey Henderson in the World Series. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>World Series titles:</strong> 9(1910, 1911, 1913, 1929, 1930, 1972, 1973, 1974, 1989)<br> <strong>World Series played:</strong> 14<br> <strong>Last played: </strong>1990<br> <strong>Last won:</strong> 1989</p>
<p>There was always something about the<strong> Oakland Athletics</strong>. Once they made it to the World Series, everybody knew they were going to get back right away. In fact, they won three titles in 4 years in the ’10s and later won 3 straight titles in the early-’70s.</p>
<p>Sadly, the team hasn’t been as good over the past couple of decades. Their ownership refuses to spend on the team’s payroll or even infrastructure, and it seems like <strong>they’re years away from being that baseball powerhouse again.</strong></p>
<h2>3. Boston Red Sox</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:600,h:333" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200723_BUS_163362_boston_red_sox_world_series.jpg_1030179834_dba23d8b.webp&amp;width=500&amp;height=310" title="" vspace="5"></figure><figcaption>    The Red Sox celebrating the 2018 World Series win.

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>World Series titles: </strong>9 (1903, 1912, 1915, 1916, 1918, 2004, 2007, 2013, 2018)<br> <strong>World Series played: </strong>13<br> <strong>Last played: </strong>2018<br> <strong>Last won: </strong>2018</p>
<p>The <strong>Boston Red Sox h</strong>ave always been contenders, especially over the past two decades, when they were the team to beat in the American League, even despite the presence of their diehard rivals New York Yankees.</p>
<p>The Red Sox had to endure tough times after their golden years in the ’10s. It took them almost 30 years to win another American League pennant but they havenow<strong> setthe standard for a winning baseball team.</strong></p>

<h2>2. St. Louis Cardinals</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">

<p><strong>World Series titles: </strong>11 (1926, 1931, 1934, 1942, 1944, 1946, 1964, 1967, 1982, 2006, 2011)<br> <strong>World Series played: </strong>19<br> <strong>Last played: </strong>2013<br> <strong>Last won:</strong> 2011</p>
<p>The <strong>St. Louis Cardinals </strong>have always been a synonym for winning. The team has constantly been among the league’s leaders and is a perennial candidate to make it back to the World Series.</p>
<p>They’re the team with the highest odds to challenge the New York Yankees as the winningest team ever, although they still have a long way to go. T<strong>hey haven’t made it to the big stage since 2013, though.</strong></p>
<h2>1. New York Yankees</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">

<p>The Evil Empire, The Bronx Bombers, The Pinstripers, The Bronx Zoo. Call them what you like, hate them if you want, and stop them if you can. That’s the<strong> New York Yankees, </strong>the most polarizing team in baseball, the guys everybody loves to hate.</p>
<p>The New York Yankees set the standard for greatness in sports. They’re the winningest team in baseball history and it’s not even close. To put in context <strong>how incredibly dominant they’ve been,</strong> the 2010s were the only decade when they didn’t win a World Series title. Let that sink in.</p>
