Phillies' 23-game losing streak in 1961
The Phillies' historic skid came to an end on Aug. 20, 1961, in the second half of a doubleheader against the Milwaukee Braves. They stretched their streak to 23 games by losing, 5-2, in the opener, but came from behind to win Game 2, 7-4. Right-hander John Buzhardt was the pitcher of record in the streak-busting victory, and also happened to have been the last Phils pitcher to record a win on July 28. The Phillies' 23-game rut hasn't been matched since; the closest any team has come is Baltimore's 0-21 start in 1988.
Orioles' losing skid to begin 1988
The Orioles got off to the worst start in MLB history in 1988, losing each of their first 21 games en route to 54-106 last-place finish. It remains the longest modern era losing streak in American League history. The O's took a 12-0 loss to the Brewers on Opening Day and didn't manage its first win until April 29, defeating the White Sox, 9-0, in Chicago. Baltimore had a 44-129 scoring margin in that span.
my local hated me he kept upping spreads against the oriles i said ok double it he kept saying if you lose you owe me $545 etc... I started against them after game # 2 stopped at 20 18 str8 wins at $200 + per game
and early on they were favored like -130 - 140
most were -180 against them i also bet on or against other teams
Red Sox, Cubs' World Series droughts
The Cubs ended one of sports' longest title droughts in 2016, with a dramatic extra-innings Game 7 victory over the Indians in Cleveland. It had been 108 years since the Cubs last won the World Series, in 1908. In 2004, the Red Sox busted a similar streak, winning their first championship in 86 years. The Astros continued the trend last season by claiming their first title since the franchise's inception in 1962. The Browns' MLB counterpart, the Cleveland Indians, now own the longest active World Series drought at 70 years. Only the NFL's Arizona Cardinals (71 years) have gone longer without a title than the Tribe among major North American professional sports teams.
Eagles also sb win drought until 2017 all other SB's they lost

and the cardinals havent won a SB yet covered as 6.5 dog aginst steelrs
