The Buffalo Destroyers continued their trend of being an all-or-nothing team, who seems to be either really good, or really bad. After a decent 1911 season in which they finished third a year after winning the World Series, they bottomed out in 1912. Then in 1913, they went from worst to first, winning the pennant and advancing to the World Series, where they were defeated by the Washington Eagles. They returned to the World Series in 1914. This time they were facing the St. Louis Browns, and the Destroyers captured their second championship by defeating the Browns in five games. They defended that title in 1915 by falling to fifth place and have not been a factor in a pennant race ever since. Ownership is a little concerned, since the team lost an alarming amount of money this past season while finishing in 7th place.
