Nineteen eighteen is gone but 1917 and 1908 remain so there are two, but the city involved with both years is Chicago, so there is only one. While much has been made of the Cubs and 1908, the White Sox and 1917 are almost never mentioned, and with good reason. Every time one brings up 1917, it leads to 1919, and that is not good for baseball.
