The Giants definitely win the 2010s.

Winning 3+ titles in a decade is an extraordinary accomplishment. Giants are only the 4th franchise to do it.

1910s: Red Sox 4 (‘12’15’16’18), Athletics 3 (‘10’11’13)
1920s: Yankees 3 (‘24’27’28)
1930s: Yankees 5 (‘32’36-‘39)
1940s: Yankees 5 (‘41’43’47’49)
1950s: Yankees 6 (‘50-‘53,’56’58)
1960s: None
1970s: Athletics 3 (‘72-‘74)
1980s: None
1990s: Yankees 3 (‘96’98’99)
2000s: None
2010s: Giants 3 (‘10’12’14)

We should revoke your fan card for one glaring omission.

Just wanted to see who was paying attention. :oops: (frankly should’ve been the ‘60s and ‘80s too).

I voted Astros because for better and worse they have revolutionized how orgs are built. If you asked me about the 2000s I might say Oakland, even sans a ring. Re Houston here's the tanking but there's also the realignment of their minor league system to better focus and concentrate resources where they will have an impact on the big league team, they do a great job increasing pitcher strength and velocity, and they won 100 games for three straight years.
