    How did your team do when you were born?

    I saw this on another board and thought it'd be neat to try here. I used the baseball almanac site to get the info.

    Anyways August 26th 1979 the lowly Blue Jays took on the eventual West division champion Angels and won 9-3. Not only did they beat the Angels but they beat Nolan Ryan!

        The Reds were finished on Oct. 29, 1976. I was born 8 days after the Reds beat the Yankees on Oct. 21, 1976, for a 4-game sweep in the World Series.

          I was born in December 1987.

          We sucked in 1987.

              I was born in March, so I guess we probably had a spring training game that day.

              I was born in 88, so thankfully I was too young to really watch the late 80's-early 90's Yankees.

                    Yep. 1988 was even worse than 1987. We lost 100+ games in 1988 I think....yikes.

                      Orioles beat the Mariners 5-4 despite a Junior Griffey home run.

                        I was born in October of 84. The year most Cubs fans know as the year of Leon Durham.

                            July 13th 1988:

                            Day after the All Star game so there were no games played on that day.

                            the day after the Yankees beat the White Sox 7-5 though.

                              The Twins were not good, and the Royals were.
