I knew from then on something Great was happening .. then , in the NLCS he hit a 2 run triple off Maddux and that was that, as they say..on to the WS.. they could have very easily won it all.. 1993 Phillies are the most underlooked miracle team of my lifetime..also, the 2022 team...

22 years later this is still my favorite sports season ever. Even more so than the 2008 World Series team. From mid-May on every game started to become a must see event. Ahh, the good old days of Phillie baseball on PRISM! They played a tremendously fun style of baseball that was enhanced by the personalities. Their major flaw was the bullpen. I can still picture my father flipping out whenever David West made appearance no matter the score. I also remember that early July 4 game series sweep against Dodgers in L.A. The Phils were struggling heading into that game. Kalas had a pretty memorable line following the 4th win iirc.

tuowl05 I hear ya, man. I'm a Texan but this is my favorite baseball team of all time. Despite his terrible moral failings as a human being in his retirement years (and his personal failings are simply staggering), Lenny Dykstra is still my all-time favorite player. My old man, who's also born and bred in Texas, himself (so we by no means have regional loyalties, here), to this day still talks about Dykstra in glowing terms. He was just the epitome of what a ballplayer should be, especially during that '93 season. But I'm also a Pete Rose fan in terms of strictly baseball so maybe I'm drawn to semi-tragic figures who have that sort of grit. (Pete Rose outside of baseball is a pathetic joke. On the field, he was a god.) Anyways, Dykstra could have been Hall of Fame material had his back not plagued him after the '93 season. Hell, just his post-season numbers alone during his all-too-short career (which consisted of what? 11 years?) are nothing short of phenomenal. Does anyone have the same homerun per at-bats ratio that he had for such an extensive post-season career? People to this day still talk about his '86 Game 3 walk-off homerun against the Astros in game 3 of the NLCS, but game 4 of the '93 World Series may have been the most impressive offensive post-season performance of all-time for a single game. Seriously. It even dwarves Reggie Jackson's three homerun game. In terms of baseball, it's hard not to be in awe of Lenny Dykstra. When I played little league ball, I emulated him (or tried to!) more than any other player I ever saw play the game. Head-first slides, diving for the ball, a willingness to take strikes to work the count, a "cocky" "piss 'n' vinegar" attitude, an emphasis on simply getting on base (even via walk) so that I could score RUNS first and foremost for my team over being flashy, etc. all dictated my style of play. I really don't know what happened to the Dude after he retired and tried to re-invent himself as some financial wiz. Even in this video, he comes across as such a down-to-Earth, likeable guy (as he always did in interviews as a player) who doesn't seem the least bit materialistic. It's very sad to have witnessed his degeneration off the field. Very sad. Even sadder than his early retirement when he had so much potential. And besides Dykstra, just about every player on that team from Inky to Milt to Dutch to Jake to Grandpa to Dunc to Eisie to Mikey, and yes, even the Wild Thing had something about them that was likeable. They epitomized everything that is great about male endeavors within the context of a team sport and for that they will always (in all likelihood) be more memorable than other Phillies teams (even the ones like the 2008 club that won the World Series). Top it off with Jim Fregosi (great "old school" kind of guy) managing, Harry Kalas (awesome voice) calling the games, and the best mascot in baseball in the Phanatic, and you have one hell of an epic season. And this was all back before the internet and wide-spread access to cable television and other distractions. When baseball was much, much more central to American culture. EVERYONE watched the World Series back in '93. That may never happen again. It pains me to see Dykstra and Williams having drunken outbursts at each other amongst a classless crowd of people in the name of some "roast" decades later. It's like the demons that came from losing this World Series never left them.

@@bobbyzwicharowski1129 Little thing for you here, Bobby.....on that Oct. 20, 1993 night, I was living in Canada's Maritime Provinces, where their Atlantic Time Zone is 1 hour ahead of Philly(8PM Philly=9PM Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada). Due to me having school the next day, I only got as far as watching that game to the bottom of the 7th, when your Phils led 14-9. It was probably around 12:35AM in my place when I was mandated to bed. When I woke up the next morning, I scrambled to the living room of where my family was living, and turned the channel to TSN(owned by Bell Media and only visible on Canadian TV lineups since Sept. 1, 1984(channel launch)). I was STUNNED to see 'TORONTO 15 PHILADELPHIA 14 Toronto Leads Series 3-1' on the results screen, and wondered in my 11-year old head 'How the HELL?!!!!! @.@ O.O'. It wasn't till sometime later that I finally watched the last 2 innings I couldn't watch originally, and was shocked then that the Jays lit Mitch up like a Roman Candle. Mitch let himself get too lost in the moment, and thus had no patience on the mound. That's when the Jays broke him, and then finished off his legend 3 nights later in Game 6. Still though, the Phillies did insanely well for themselves in the 1993 campaign, and to get by the Braves in 6 games probably wasn't easy for them. And for the record, Bobby, yes, I am a Jays fan(have been since late-1991, when my mind was able to 1st process what baseball was, at the age of 9 XD), but I do NOT EVER call ANY pro sports team here a 'favourite'. All of them are underdogs permanently, compared to the vastly out-moneyed pro teams in the U.S. =P

From a Jays fan, I'd have to say that Mitch Williams was probably too wound up about everything swirling around his head at that time. He was too hyper and too eager on the mound, and sadly for him, that resulted in him basically being reduced to a random clusterfuck kind of pitcher, who didn't have a lot of pitches in his arsenal. The Jays eventually figured him out, after his rather lengthy save attempt in Game 4, and exposed Williams after having him out there that long that night. When it came to Game 6, the Jays had his puzzle solved, and that's when Joe Carter struck like a viper on that 2-2 pitch. Had Mitch been a lot more calm, and less panicked, as I think he may have been, then the Phillies would've won Game 6 6-5 and forced Ultimate Doomsday the night after at SkyDome...Game 7. And when it comes to pro sports franchises in Canada, unlike a lot of others in my country, I don't live, or carry my way of thinking, in a fantasy dreamworld. As harsh as it is, I live in reality, and can usually spot when something will go off the rails for any of the teams we have in the playoffs. Fortunately, on my end, the Jays did not derail in either 1992 against the Braves, or in 1993 against the Phillies. But I still consider Canada's teams to be underdogs in all series they play, lineup, coaching staffs, or front office people be damned. They are no longer underdogs to me if they win 5 straight titles. I kind of wish I could see a championship parade like what happened with the 1993 Jays again down a Canadian city's streets. =S

I’m not trying to take anything away from their success, but this whole “bunch of idiots...beer drinking/hotdog eating...everyone’s got dirt on their uniforms...no other teams wanted us...etc., etc., etc.” just always felt so overblown. The group of guys weren’t all that unique. Several teams can make this same claim throughout the 90’s. Ad I opened with, I’m not trying to take anything away from them, and here’s why: that description takes away from the fact that they had some really talented players, and most of these finally put together seasons they were capable of: Lenny Dykstra...always a gamer...always a pest...would fight for 90’...John Kruk...that guy was ALWAYS a great hitter. In the 80’s, Tony Gwynn remarked what a great hitter he was (and how fast he was, until the weight gain)...Mitch Williams...guy always threw heat...Curt Schilling...okay, hate the guy personally, simply because he’s always jawing about something, and he’s just not that intelligent away from the game. However, as a pitcher, the dude was unbelievably talented...and had great success...Ricky Jordan...any dude that hits a HR in his first ML AB is a gamer...Darren Daulton...guy was a fantastic hitter...a great catcher...a great team leader. Anyway, I could go on, but that’s my point.
