10. Which team qualified for the postseason for the first time in 22 years when it won the AL East?
From Quiz The 2015 MLB Season
Answer:
Toronto Blue Jays
The Blue Jays had the longest playoff drought of any MLB team going into the 2015 season. Oddly, though, the Jays had won the World Series more recently than seven of the other nine playoff teams, the only exceptions being the Cardinals and the Yankees. The Jays won both the 1992 and 1993 World Series, then vanished from the playoffs until the 2015 season. Their division, the AL East, was a tough division in which to compete during this period, with the Yankees and/or the Red Sox usually dominating the division. Of the other teams in the postseason in 2015, the Mets, Dodgers and Royals last won a World Series in the 1980s, the Pirates in the 1970s, the Cubs in 1908(!), and the Astros and Rangers never.
