21 in a row. (Yes - I am trying to jinx you).
Wow.
You "swept" all 7 teams in a row. I know not technically Iron Chefs.
Has that been done before here?

Thanks, blood.
I was waiting to see if we could win tonight's tussle with the Kitchen Help, and thus really and truly sweep the American League. But since you bring it up ...
It has been quite a run, yes? Obviously, the important moments were sweeping KC and NY, which helps us make the playoffs. But I think my favorites are these two games:
7/30/72 (game 5 of The Streak): We tie Baltimore in the 8th; they tie us in the 10th; we "win" the 13th 6-2 and thus win the game. http://www.simdynasty.com/boxscore.jsp?boxscoreid=9614502&cityid=8
8/13/72 (game 17 of The Streak): Phenom Guy Borreau shuts us out on 2 hits over 10 innings. Nobody scores till the lucky 13th; we end up beating Detroit 2-0 in a game where each team collects but 5 hits. http://www.simdynasty.com/boxscore.jsp?boxscoreid=9648329&cityid=8
There was a stretch in there where Sloan won 2 and saved 2 in I think 6 games. That's the point where he moved into first place in the Irv balloting.
Anyway, it's been fun so far.

The Kreme Pies stop the winning streak at 24 games. I dunno if anyone's done it before; I know Cleveland had at least one run of something-teen wins. WK?
Anyway, 24 straight wins. 24! Champagne and hookers for everyone!

though it's most likely past the point of meaningful, it always feels nice sweeping the Dips.

Before you get too excited, remember that we were without the great Louis Moynahan.
But hey, you can at least put a scare into the Blues. Good series. Well played.

I don't think any of the Clone teams of the past have ever mnaged to sweep the AL.
