1994
In 1994, there was no World Series, so let's throw in a non-World Series question. Two upcoming questions will involve a rising Cleveland squad that featured surly slugger Albert Belle in the middle of its lineup. In the 144 game season of 1995, Belle achieved what incredible statistical feat that had not been achieved in major league history before and has not been replicated since?

He hit 50 home runs and 50 doubles in the same season.
