Until recently... in most of our lifetimes.
The 1880's big rivals
The 1920's Rivals
The late 30's early 40's rivals
Early to mid 60's rivals.
Division play and Augie Busch's insistence that he be in the same division as the Cubs (EAST though both are west of Cincinnati) created the world that we recall as being recent.
