Division Race Ever Been so Tight as this?

So, at the all star break (should of posted a picture) all teams were withing 3 games of each other in the NL central, and the pic is where it ended. I have never seen such domination from 3 teams in one specific division.

Have you all?

2015 MLB season had the Cards with 100 wins, Pirates with 98, and Cubs with 97. Not sure if that has ever been topped.

I have seen two 100 win teams a couple times in OOTP from the same division.
