Has a team ever lost a 3-0 lead in the World Series? Not even close

Going into Game 4 of the World Series on Oct. 27, the Milwaukee Brewers need one more win to secure the first championship in franchise history, with the game at Tropicana Field. The article notes overwhelming odds based on historical records: since 1903, teams that took a 3-0 lead in a World Series went on to win all 25 times, and 21 of those won in Game 4. The only best-of-seven comeback from a 3-0 deficit was the 2004 Boston Red Sox rally versus the New York Yankees. If Milwaukee wins, it would join the 2005 Chicago White Sox and 1999 Yankees as teams that lost zero or one game in the postseason and won the World Series.
