There's been a trend in recent years of long championship droughts coming to an end:
2002: The Angels won their first championship in their 42nd season. 
2004: The Red Sox broke an 86 yard hex.
2005: With much less fanfare, the White Sox broke an 88 year drought.
2006: The Cardinals won for the first time in 24 years.
2008: The Phillies won for the first time in 28 years.  
2010: The Giants had been waiting since 1954.
2015: The Royals had had hard times since they'd won it for the first time 30 years before.
2016: The Cubs. 108 years!
2017: The 56 Astros team wins their first title. 
2019: The Expos/Naitonal frnachise wins their first title after 50 years. The nation's capital wins it's first in 95 years.
