As msg mentioned, we may not be able to bask in the glow and beauty that is 1988 for much longer. So let's do an analysis of just how wonderful that number is...
The NL West is a division of 5 teams. Since the last time the dogs represented the NL West in the World Series, SIX different teams have gone on to the World Series from the NL West.
Of those 6 teams, two have been 5 times. One is essentially a minor league team. TWO did not even exist in 1988.
Since the last time the dogs were in the World Series, 1988, 12 different teams have represented the NL in the World Series. Only the Brewers, Pirates and Expos/Nats join the dogs in utter futility.
17 of the current 40 players on the dogs 40-man roster have never had the indignity of a seeing the dogs in the World Series in their lifetime.
The Giants have been to the World Series FIVE times since the last time the dogs went, which was in 1988, 29 years ago.
The Giants have won the World Series THREE times since the last time the dogs went, which was in 1988, 29 years ago.
The Chicago Cubs have won the World Series more recently than the dogs, who have not won since 1988.
