For September 27: Baseball's Division Champions, 1969-2024

For this list, I am counting, even if Major League Baseball does not do so officially, Division titles from 1969 onward, the split-season Divisional Champions of 1981, and the teams that were in first place when the Strike of 1994 hit. It does not, however, include Pennants and World Series won by Wild Card teams.

All ties in this ranking are broken by most recent finish, then by most recent Pennant. This season's Division winners in bold.
