A fellow SABR member informs me that the AL West in 1984 and 1994 are the only two times where the entire division was outscored by their opponents. In 84 the Royals won the division with an 84-78 record while the Angels and Twins were both 81-81. There were seven teams in the division back then and so it would seem the feat would be "more" impressive.
In 1994 of course there were only four teams in the AL West and the Rangers won the strike shortened division title with a 52-62 record.
