List of Major League Baseball 100 win seasons
Over the course of 126 seasons (from 1892 through 2017), 102 teams have won 100 or more games in a single Major League Baseball season. While this makes the feat a relatively common occurrence, the 100-win threshold remains the hallmark of the best teams in a given season.
While there have been 23 seasons with two or more 100-win teams, only six seasons have seen three teams finish above the 100-win threshold in the same season.
