Believe it or not, among clubs active in 2022, there are 6 teams that have never won a World Series.
Here is a complete rundown of those franchises, along with some information about how long they’ve been toiling with no trophy to show for their troubles. These listings are ordered by the teams’ first year in MLB, shown in parentheses.
Texas Rangers (1961)
The Rangers began life as the expansion Washington Senators after the original Sens became the Minnesota Twins. But, while Minnesota has seen a pair of titles, the Rangers didn’t even make the playoffs until 1996.
They did make it to the World Series in both 2010 and 2011 but lost in five and seven games, respectively.
