I was doing some research on the longest losing season streaks, mainly for an article about the Orioles and their 9-year run of futility. Found it interesting that from 1919-1948 the Phils had one winning season. That heady '32 season saw them finish in 4th place, with a 78-76 record. How in heck did the A's pick up and leave while the Phils stuck around?
