The Yankees set a record by winning 5 straight World Series Titles! They win in 1949 and then run off 4 straight to achieve it. Then add 2 more Championships in 1956 thanks in part to 3 homerun blasts by Mickey Mantle and he adds 2 more in 1958. The Dodgers win a couple more Titles, one while in Brooklyn and one in Los Angeles featuring terrific play by Gil Hodges in both. Aaron bats .393 knocking out 3 homeruns to get the Braves past the Yankees in the 1957 Series. The unforgettable over the shoulder catch by Willie Mays along with a strict 1.46 team ERA helps capture a Championship for the New York Giants in 1954!
