1992 World Series, Game 6: Blue Jays @ Braves

Toronto Blue Jays 4 at Atlanta Braves 3, F/11 -- Dave Winfield picked the perfect moment for his first extra-base hit in twelve career World Series games. With the score tied in the 11th and the Blue Jays one win away from Canada's first-ever World Series title, Winfield burned Charlie Leibrandt for a double down the left field line to put Toronto up 4-2. The Braves mounted a comeback, but ultimately fell short, 4-3.

With Joe Carter being the first baseman here for the final out, and with the big Homer in '93, you could say both of the Blue Jays' World Series wins literally were in Carter's hands.

So without the Phillies choke job in game 4 of that world series, the Jays would have gone to a game 7 against them. I'm glad the Jays won those two years, but they were lucky both times. Atlanta was almost up 2-0 on them , despite being the inferior team.

[@pauljohnson3340]

I am a Brewers fan, and that year they had done incredibly well, only to see Toronto take the AL East. It just so happened that I was in Toronto on this particular weekend-it was planned well in advance. Sitting in a hotel lobby watching this game on a big screen with about 40 other people. When Winfield came up to bat in the 10th, I remember saying out loud to no one in particular, "He's due for a hit" because he had hit the ball pretty hard in his last at bat. Wouldn't you know, he did it. Pretty memorable night. The Jays were amazingly good that year.

[@ckendall67]

The Brew Crew won 92 games that year & made that late push for the division crown after the Orioles had already faded from the hunt, but the Jays held on that final weekend. I still remember when the Brewers hammered the Jays 22-2 at the SkyDome in late-August. A lot of folks thought at that time the Jays would fold. But it didn't it happen, & the Jays went on to win their 1st WS title :)

[@manuginobilisbaldspot424]

The current Brew Crew could take a lesson from that '92 squad Sal Bando put together. PITCHING. Best in the American League. Really thought Cal Eldred was gonna be a superstar the way he came out the gate that year. But they won with pitching and defense...great middle relief. IIRC, they only had two hitters with more than 10 home runs!

[@minnbeef]

Paul Johnson I didn't know they still played baseball in Milwaukee?????

[@MojoPin1983]

Paul Johnson, Windfield’s hit was actually in the *11th* inning.

[@kranmaster]

That '92 pitching staff was insane, and maybe one of the finest ever assembled. David Cone, Jimmy Key, Jack Morris, Dave Stieb, David Wells, Al Leiter, Pat Hentgen, Juan Guzman, Duane Ward, Tom Henke, Todd Stottlemyre, Mike Timlin, just to name a few hahaha.

[@williampavichevich306]

Very Great and Underrated Series. Game 6 felt like watching a Game 7

[@ADEAL918]

william pavichevich would have been quite a Game 7 too--Glavine vs. Guzman. I wonder though if Cox later regretted the decision to go with a three-man rotation, when Leibrandt had had a great season as the 4th starter. 15-7, 3.36. That's more than good enough to merit being in the rotation. Bringing him in in the exact same situation, same game of the series, as where he had failed the year before was just asking for another meltdown. I don't think it was fair to Leibrandt to do that to him. He should have been the starter in Game 4. (Still available for bullpen duty of course, if necessary, but then they could have had Glavine, Smoltz, and Avery on regular rest for games 5, 6, and 7.

[@brycemcneil4404]

@@ADEAL918 The irony? Cox's first postseason failure was WITH the Jays when Cox went three-man, left off Jim Clancy and pushed Stieb to bug dust in Game 7 (after he'd pitched spectacularly in Games 1 & 4). The benefactor in that Game 7 of the 85 ALCS? Charlie Leibrandt.

[@ADEAL918]

Bryce McNeil that's interesting. Just looked up the numbers though, and Clancy's numbers in '85 weren't nearly as good as Leibrandt's in '92. It's weird with Cox. I admire the heck out of the guy for what he did with those Braves teams and his players worshipped him, thought of him like a father. But he did make some pretty objectively idiotic post-season pitching moves that even without 20/20 hindsight I remember thinking "this is going to be a disaster." Particularly in the '99 World Series in Games 1 and 3 when he left his starters in WAY too long and let them blow leads even with a solid bullpen backing them up. Particularly egregious was Game 3 with Glavine where he had just been sick and gave him 7 great innings with a two-run lead, about to get his team back in the series, but he left him in even though he was clearly tiring and he blew the lead in two batters. '05 LDS was another doozy, leaving Kyle Farnsworth in for the 9th in Game 4 after he gave up a grand slam the previous inning, cutting a five-run lead to a run, and then he coughed the rest of it up in the 9th.

[@brycemcneil4404]

@@ADEAL918 Yeah, in Clancy's case, mediocre #s probably scared him off but I would have only reverted to three man if I lost one of the first two home games. KC hadn't faced Clancy yet that year and that usually at least favours the pitcher. I found Cox often got into his own head in a playoff environment and would be working harder to avoid a past mistake than to make the right decision in the there and then. Even as the Jays had victimized Reardon twice, I was absolutely gleeful that Cox kept Leibrandt in because I could see him tiring and felt the Jays were going to capitalize.

[@Sephiroth766]

@@ADEAL918 Cox also lived and died by the platoon abscess very stubborn and given who the opposing pitcher was he’d always have a lefty or righty heavy lineup. Problem is Braces weren’t that deep and ok important games, especially elimination games he’ll throw out mediocre lineups.

Great, great memories -- I remember it as though it was yesterday. Thanks for the upload. To me, this was by far the most defining moment in Jays' history. Coming into this series they were clearly an outstanding team with lots of talent. And yet, the whole of Toronto was nervous as Hell. Since the late 80's the Blue Jays had been knocking on the door forever, it seemed, only to screw up at the very end -- usually in a ridiculous way. The whole picture changed when when Devon White, Robbie Alomar and Joe Carter were brought on board. Still, 1991's ALCS loss to the Minnesota Twins was tough to swallow. Not to take anything away from the Twins, but to this day I feel the Jays could've, and should've won that series. Alas, by the time the 1992 WS came along, so many in Toronto felt as if there was some curse upon the team. There was talk -- unjust, I grant you -- about the US not wanting the WS Trophy to be won outside the States. Literally everyone was on edge. I even remember my girlfriend telling me at the time that she overheard two old ladies arguing about baseball in a public toilet. One could feel the tension throughout the entire city. We knew our boys were good enough to win it, but there was always this voice at the back of one's mind saying, "Well, yes -- but what if... God forbid!" When the final out closed the deal, the city just erupted! It was like a giant bottle of Champagne, which someone had been shaking for 7 years, until Timlin & Carter blew the cork off. The joy on the streets was indescribable! Total strangers were hugging & kissing each other, and no one knew what to say. Everything was so spontaneous -- maybe because people expected the win, but were afraid to admit it, thus they weren't planning to party. It all makes for a memory that I'd gladly relive from time to time for the rest of my life. Next year's win was also special, but n a different way. In 1993 the Jays had such an incredible line-up, that no one could have seriously hoped to challenge them. Think about it: 1st, 2nd, and 3rd best batting average in the league that year were all Jays -- Olerud, Molitor, and Alomar, respectively. In the 1993 WS Pat Borders was batting 9th in the batting order. That was mind boggling -- the #9 batter being the WS MVP the year before... In 1993 there was simply no doubt in anyone's mind who was going to win it all -- even before Carter's heroics in the bottom of the 9th. But in 1992, it felt more special because many of the players were home-grown, and also there were great contributions from some of the role-players involved. Let me mention a few names, for old time's sake: Dave Stieb, Kelly Gruber, Eddie Zosky, Alfredo Griffin, John Olerud, Candy Maldonado, Tom Henke, Ed Sprague, Pat Borders, Juan Guzman, Many Lee, Rob Ducey, Jeff Kent, David Wells, Greg Meyers, Dwayne Ward, Turner Ward (and George Bell, who by that time wasn't a Jay anymore, but should have been). Some of these guys were at the end of their best years, others were to become all-time greats later on; none of them were born in Canada, but the city nurtured their careers for years. They, along with all other players on the 1992 Blue Jays roster should be made honorary citizens of Toronto. Thanks, and thanks again, for these once-in-a-life-time memories, boys!

[@Krivack]

@greg oscar True, very true -- so much has changed since then. But I still have hopes to see my city live through a similar experience, if the Leafs win the Stanley Cup (yes, I'm an incurable optimist) within my life time. As for the 4 million viewers, I don't remember what the numbers were exactly. Some time ago I saw an interview with Kelly Gruber, who said that the Yankees, the Red Sox, the Texas Rangers may be called "America's team" from time to time, and yet none of these teams ever had a clue. Back in the Jays' prime years they were truly Canada's team, with the entire nation pinning their hopes on them. It's a fact that all of Canada cheered for the Jays. With that in mind, it wouldn't surprise me if the viewership was even higher than the figure you give. Cheers!

The 1992 Blue Jays were pretty clearly the best team in the majors that season but because of their failures in prior years people were reluctant to consider them the favorites.

+walterlv01 Alomar's home run in the ALCS off of Eckersley was the one that changed everything in my opinion. To me that one was even bigger than Carter's home run in 93 because in 93 it seemed almost inevitable that the Jays would win against the underdog Phillies and Mitch Williams had been terrible all series. Alomar's HR was off the regular season MVP+Cy young winner on the road to cap a huge comeback.

[@doublestrokeroll]

+walterlv01 That's nonsense F Dann....the Jays were most certainly the favorites in 93. The Phillies were practically considered a Cinderella team. In 92 the Braves may have been slightly favored but it wasn't by much. Saying "nobody" expected it....well...you obviously weren't watching baseball at that time. And yes Thomas you're right. It was the A's that were the Blue Jay's biggest nemesis. I wouldn't say it was "bigger" than Carter's homer.....nothing is more impressive than a homer that walks off a world series.....but it was one of the most important homers in Jays history that's for sure.

[@fdannn6926]

[@doublestrokeroll]

I was there. I've been watching them since the early 80's. No fucking shit nobody would have predicted back to backs prior to the first one...nobody ever predicts back to backs for ANY world series prior to winning the first one. You're not even making a point. Once we won that first one, and got molitor, Henderson, and Stewart, EVERYBODY new we had a good SHOT at the back to back. It was obviously the best line up in all of baseball prior to the season starting. You're here acting like they were long shots to win it both years which is just complete BS. They were HEAVY favorites over the Phillies and probably an even pick with the Braves. You obviously weren't paying attention or weren't alive back then cause if you were you'd know the Jays were a consistently excellent team from the mid 80's onward. They were a playoff team in 89 and 91. 92 was not a surprise. It was the final fulfillment of all that potential. For fans who had been following them....like me....it was a relief, not a surprise.

Leibrandt had a good head on his shoulders and his life certainly wasn't ruined by these games.

What a great game. The Jays were such a disciplined hitting team. Look at how this game starts. Single by White, groundout by Alomar moving the runner to third, and a sacrafice fly by Carter (ignoring the error by Justice). 1 run on just 1 hit. Today's hitters believe its not worth making adjustments just to hit singles and that strikeouts are no worse than getting an out while putting a ball in play.

I'm not fond of FOX either, but in '93, as Joe Carter was bat with a 2-2 count - just before the swing and walk off HR that won the series, CBS commentator Tim McCarver said that Carter looked awkward and uncomfortable at the plate. I've often wondered how those words tasted, and how many times he wished he could go back in time and say nothing. Tom Cheek, on the other hand, uttered the most famous words in MLB history: "Touch 'em all, Joe! You’ll never hit a bigger home run in your life.”

[@Icecreamforcrowtoo]

Most famous words in MLB history? You have to be kidding.

[@ADEAL918]

Icecreamforcrowtoo McCarver's most surreal moment though, was in Game 7 of 2001, he said right before the final pitch "Rivera throws inside to left handers, they get a lot of broken bag hits to the shallow parts of the outfield. That's the danger of bringing the infield in with a guy like Rivera on the mound." And sure enough, literally five seconds later, Luis Gonzalez hits a little dunker just barely over the drawn-in infield to drive in the series-winning run--it would have been catchable with the infield in normal depth.

[@josephgreen2824]

And then there were those losses in 93 97 and 98 in the playoffs

Wow.... this was 30 years ago and I was 16. I was in love with a girl and the blue jays. This was beautiful time.👍🏽🙂

I'm a Jays fan born in 1991 - I was technically alive during the Jays championships, but I obviously have zero memories of it happening. It's so great I live in an era where I can watch any game of World Series at the snap of a hand. It must have been great to witness the back-to-back as it happened

Harry Connick Jr. nailed the U.S. National Anthem, crowd joined in softly

[@igabm32yt]

compared to other baseball games on KZbin, this one sure has an extremely high amount of commercial interruptions

I watched it live from Guelph, Ontario!

@@thefrase7884 Well it was just amazing. It really didn’t seem real, that a Canadian team could win the World Series! ⚾️

Joe Carter is so excited here and he has no idea what is to come almost a year later, something even better and more exciting!

Damn! I almost had the chance to go the '92 Jays parade. I was in grade 11 in suburban Toronto and had a friend willing to drive me downtown for the parade. I didn't go, but in retrospect, I should have.

Gotta give Timlin credit he made a really good play I mean it wasn't the best bunt, but still, it wasn't awful and Timlin still had to make a play.
