Those teams just walked and walked and walked and had so many guys on base. Of course, it's not as if the Yankees didn't score a ton of runs this year.

The Yankees have seven batters with more than 70 RBI. Rockies still just have five. The Yankees have seven batters with more than 90 Runs scored. Rockies just have two.

I am surprised the Rockies haven't done that before. Turns out the Rockies are the first non-DH team to do it since 1953. Such an accomplishment doesn't bode well. Only six of those teams made it to the World Series, and only two won the World Series. Of course, it was the Yankees ('36 & '38). That’s a very cool stat report.
