Despite similar stats, the 2019 New York Yankees are nothing like 1998

The year was 1998. Your name is likely Emily or Michael if you were born that wonderful year. Whenever the TV was turned on, the chances of it being on shows like “Seinfeld” and the beginning seasons of “Sex in the City.” It was also the year where the names Bill and Monica took over the news.

Most importantly, 1998 served as one of the most dominant seasons in history for the New York Yankees.

Finishing with 114 overall wins, the Bombers were just two wins shy of tying the 1906 Chicago Cubs. The Seattle Mariners tied that record themselves just three seasons later with 116 victories.
