Yankees Top the World Series with 27 Wins

The New York Yankees have won tonight, their 27 World Series championship in Game 6 against the Philadelphia Phillies. The teams split the two games at Yankee Stadium before the series shifted to Philadelphia, where the Yankees won Game 3 and Game 4 before the Phillies took Game 5 on Monday night.

The Yankees hold the best and the worst of the Fall Classic: they have played in 40 of the 104 World Series and have won 27 Series, the most of any Major League franchise, but because of this frequent appearances, they have also lost 13 championships, more than any other club. With most World Series appearances, wins and losses, aren't the Yanks worldest?
