If the Yankees can pull out a win over the Dodgers in the World Series, it will be the seventh time in history New York has celebrated multiple major sports championships in the same calendar year. That would break a tie with Los Angeles for the most multi-championship years in history. According to the Los Angeles Times , 10 U.
S. cities have had the luxury of seeing championships in two different sports across the seven major leagues, which include the NFL , NBA , NHL , MLB , MLS, WNBA and NWSL). Only four of those cities have done it more than once.
Los Angeles (1988, 2001, 2002, 2012, 2014, 2020) New York (1927, 1928, 1933, 1938, 1956, 1986) Detroit (1935, 1952, 2008) Boston (2004, 2018) Washington D.C. (2019) Kansas City (2015) Chicago (1998) San Francisco (1989) Pittsburgh (1979) Baltimore (1970) The Yankees are just four wins away from putting another feather in New York's hat as the greatest sports city of all-time, and they have all the pieces to take down the Dodgers.
Juan Soto is putting on an MVP-caliber performance, the starting rotation is strong, and players like Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton can change each game with one swing of the bat. In CBS Sports' World Series predictions , three of our six experts picked the Yankees to finish the job in a long and tightly-contested series. Even if the Yankees do fall just short of another championship, New York will still have a couple bites at the apple before the calendar flips to 2025.
