During their thirteen years in Wisconsin, the Milwaukee Braves never endured a losing season, won two National League pennants, and in 1957 brought Milwaukee its only World Series championship.

The Tigers led wire-to-wire in 1984, becoming only the third team in the modern era of the majors to have done so.
