1. As in a 4 game sweep? Quite a few times. |
|
The Red Sox won the 2004 World Series with a 4 game sweep of the Cardinals.

2. I think the question was whether any team had swept twice in 2 consecutive appearances |

5. Ahh, I see. I believe the Yankees did it. |

1998 and 1999... They swept both the Padres and the Braves.

7. Jankees, 1998 & 1999, 1938 & 1939 and 1927 & 1928 |

If you include back-to-back appearances, as you would be with Boston, Cincinnati did it in 1976 and 1990. http://www.baseball-reference.com/postseason/

Yankees did it a few years ago, sweeping the San Diego Padres in 1998 and the Atlanta Braves in 1999.
