History

Historical Context

In 1998 the Yankees won a franchise-record 114 regular-season games and swept the San Diego Padres in the World Series, giving the club its first of eight World Series sweeps. Under manager Joe Torre, they repeated the feat in 1999. The pattern of postseason dominance resurfaced in 2026 when the Yankees again swept the Philadelphia Phillies.
