[edit] Four-division alignment (1969-1993)
- Team names link to the season in which each team played
- Due to the strike that took place in the middle of the 1981 season, Major League Baseball crowned both a "first half" (pre-strike) and "second half" (post-strike) division champion. The teams were then matched against each other in a special division series. Oakland and New York won the 1981 American League Division Series while Los Angeles and Montreal won the 1981 National League Division Series.
[edit] Six-division alignment (1994-present)
- There were no division winners in 1994 due to the 1994 Major League Baseball strike. The teams leading at the end of the season were the New York Yankees, Chicago White Sox, Texas Rangers, Montreal Expos, Cincinnati Reds, and Los Angeles Dodgers.
