1995 - MLB owners unanimously approve two expansion teams: the Arizona Diamondbacks and Tampa Bay Devil Rays. 
Each of the new clubs will pay a $130 million franchise fee and will begin play in 1998. And for the Cubs fans out there, these two teams have played in the World Series more since their inception than the Cubs have in the last 65 years. They have also won more Fall Classics than the Cubs in 100 years. Tee hee hee.
