same thing - well except no hidden tapes

Perfect season for a first year Blue Jays fan.

Haha! Same!

It was epic both of them memories that will last a lifetime

Shade

So did I.

my daughter was born on oct 24th 1993. EXACTLY 24 hours after joe hit that home run. Something I will NEVER forget.

Watching it cause I'm bored now lol

This guy could narrate my life and I would be happy with that.

Peter Thomas is awesome.

💯💯💯

@A A The Braves were far better than the Phillies on paper but were completely exhausted from the pennant race with the Giants, who finished in second place with 103 wins.

@@87Khein Definitely! The division race with the Giants wore them out.

A A no way nan I’d say the braves they just came off of two World Series loses.

A A man*

Bummer, mine were watched to death but were in still good shape but I lost them. More likely that my mom gave them to goodwill or something criminal after I moved out

Honestly, it was a stupid movie. Ed Sprague was a very below average 3rd baseman. There is no way he should have been starting over Olerud.

Pitching matchup

@@shaunnickerson2097 Gaston hated how patient olerud was at the plate .

Don’t u mean Roboito Alomar??? Lolol

The greatest second baseman of his generation.

He was a 4x All-Star at this point. 3x Gold Glove, and 1x Silver Slugger.. and only 25 years old. It wasn't some great prediction to see his career trajectory was Cooperstown.

Me lol

This is the closest I'm getting to watching Blue Jays baseball this year cause of the damn lockout

@@joshlee2192 The lockout is over and the Blue Jays just blew out the Red Sox in Fenway Park.

LOL

😂

You won in 2008, hopefully that erased this loss. And as good as this Phillies team was, they weren’t better than the two teams they faced in the playoffs. If the Braves hadn’t had to contend with the Giants all year they would have won the NLCS.

@@KinkESizemore I was just 11 years old during the ‘93 Series, so it’s a childhood memory that will be special to me forever. Of course 2008 was amazing, but the 1993 Phillies were my team, ya know?

@@Hulkamaniac418 understandable

These were two very strong and powerful teams

Galaxy Vloggers GALAXY ALLDAY!! I am it's fun to go back and watch it's not as fun today.

Actually people did that a lot back in the 90's with video camera's. Kids taking them to school and vlogging. They just didn't have anywhere to post them.

NEWSFLASH ASSHOLE! PEOPLE HAVE BEEN DOING IT THE ENTIRE GODDAMN TIME!!

Well if I recall, the 94 Jays pre-strike were a 3rd place team in the AL East that were not threatening to make a move in the division, would not have made the playoffs. Could they have been on the decline anyway?

I don't think that was what he was getting at. It just overshadowed the achievement of the Jays is what I think he was meaning. Everyone knows the strike killed the Expos.

rodzor thanks, you were right. Now I understand the OP's comment.

I think MLB didn't want another Canadian team to win so they kaiboshed the Expos stellar season. :)

I'm Canadian but I'd say it was White Sox v Braves in the '94 World Series (and a couple other teams that were good enough besides the Expos) but it's too bad they never got their shot.

Kayaker Dude absolutely correct.

funny thing is, he pronounced his name correctly in the 92 documentary series!

I was born in 83. I think the Orioles-Phillies World Series of that year is one of the most uneventful WS of that time. But 83 was also the year the New York Islanders swept the Stanley Cup Finals over Gretzky's Oilers, completing a 4-peat. The very last 4-peat we have seen in North American team sports history. Hasn't happened since.

@@billny33 Cool stuff.

and....?

@@tbewin1z143 and what?

That's kinda the sense I had for a while, not from this video specifically but in general lol. Unfortunately the years, the mugshots and the Mitchell Report have not been kind to those '93 Phils!

You mean from all those Al Leiter home videos they feature and the fact that more Jays (by a long shot) were interviewed than Phillies? No, I didn't really get that vibe but the Phillies were the underdog (and their NLCS victory was more improbable and dramatic than the Jays' ALCS win over Chicago). The Phillies that year were a unique team so maybe some of that is what you're picking up on? The Blue Jays were given plenty of respect and time in this video. What else should have been done? You can't cast the defending champs full of "professionals" as the wacky underdogs against the Phillies or anything. The dynamic there just is what it is. So I think the video is extremely fair to both teams. I'm from Texas so this isn't a biased Phillies fan responding to you, here. The World Series videos from this time period were very classy and well-done. You want to see an example of something that's blatantly butchered and biased and insulting to one of the franchises and their fan base participating in a World Series? Well, check out the 2005 World Series video MLB had commissioned. It was about the Chicago White Sox and their quest for a historic World Series crown after an 80 year long drought versus...some other team....doesn't really matter, either...but some other team that had to show up for the White Sox to play to accomplish this feat.

@@Icecreamforcrowtoo You're from Texas, and you're supporting a video very clearly aimed at the team who opposed the Blue Jays. Cant say I'm shocked there. "Better to be punched out in May..."

@@kadel300 "You're from Texas, and you're supporting a video very clearly aimed at the team who opposed the Blue Jays. Can't say I'm shocked there." What is that even supposed to mean, man? Where are you from? You know, for a guy bitching about bias you demonstrate quite a bit of that yourself here in terms of how you seem to generalize about people. "Oh, you're from Texas...of course." Seriously, man. Look in the mirror. You seem to project some of very qualities you have onto others. If I did that about you based on your geographical location, I'm sure you'd be offended. For the record, I was in fifth grade during this World Series and freaking hated the Phillies at the time for eliminating the Atlanta Braves. I was a huge Roberto Alomar and Joe Carter fan and was even pulling for them in 1992 until they got to that World Series and beat the Braves. I still have my little league Blue Jays cap (which looked just like the pro hats) from that year. And I was happy for Joe Carter when he hit the home run in this World Series. I'm actually pulling quite a bit for the 2021 Blue Jays to overtake the Yankees and the Red Sox. How does all this all fit into your "oh, you're from Texas...of course you hate the Blue Jays!" nonsense? I do view the 1993 Phillies more sympathetically than I did as an eleven year old. But this notion that "of course you support this video...you're from Texas" is really ignorant.

The reality is Phillies were badly overmatched. They overachieved just to beat Atlanta in the NLCS. The fact they were not swept by one of the super teams in the Blue Jays was a miracle.

Edward Bliss not really. Their pitching staff wasn't great by any means. It was a solid team but very beatable for the Phils. They gave that series away. Not to take anything away from Joe Carter, but Williams lost that series more than anyone else won it. Carter's home run he certainly earned but Williams blowing that 4-run lead in Game 4 has to be factored into this equation big time. That was a meltdown.

@@ADEAL918 I see a lot of similarities between those '93 Phillies and the 2015 champions Kansas City Royals. A blue collar type team with a lot of fight, character and intangibles you don't necessarily forsee. That KC team found a way to win with no-name players, pitching and offense clicking at the right time. I could've seen that happening with those Phillies. Only problem is that the Jays were too good, sort of like the 2015 Royals playing against the 1984 Detroit Tigers

THERE'S NO CONCUSSIONS IN BASEBALL! ..

@NO PATS JIM Ya it does

Well you finally got another one last year, albeit from a team that did not even exist at the time the Blue Jays won their last one.

@@billny33 Then the scandal is on, and the merit is gone! take care.

@@carlosperdomo5956 what were you referring to there?

@@tbewin1z143 Hi, to the night in which the Jays won the world series in 1993. Cheers

@@carlosperdomo5956 what's the scandal though?

Dykstra would easily have been MVP had the Phillies won.

Molitor=now the Twins Manager!

I mean cmon.. he was wore out. He was used too much. They had no middle relief.

I'm the same way. I'll buy team merchandise not because I like the current version of the team, but because I like the past versions of the team that had many iconic/legendary players and memorable moments such as the old school White Sox teams that Frank Thomas played on and etc even though I can barely watch a White Sox game now lol

Based on how they were rotating. It would have most likely been Pat Hentgen vs Danny Jackson.

Same!! I was 11 and my Mom and I both went crazy when Joe hit that home run. It has been 30 years. Hard to believe!

@@MusizKanuck time flies man

@@chadgrov apparently the Jays have a really good line-up this year and the Skydome (I don’t care if it’s the Rogers Center or whatever) has been newly renovated. Gotta go catch a couple games this year for sure.

@@MusizKanuck yeah they’re going to be a problem in the AL this year, skydome looks pretty cool with the outfield changes, fans are much closer to the outfield and the bullpens. They did a great job. Tickets aren’t that crazy! find a good series and get to a game

Erik Zarins Yes sir lol

The finest second baseman of his era. And behind him one of the best centerfielders ever in Devon White. Even with all that scoring you need defense.

And would have gotten in on first ballot if the voters hadn't held a grudge over him spitting on the ump.

Yeah, I blame all the Phillies fans who made death threats at him prior to game six.

Worst to first in their division, too.

NL East was less loaded than the AL East, that's why.

Certainly not the ending...there are several versions. First time I saw Lori Leiter...and a camcorder from another era. Oh, the question was rhetorical....carry on.

Jimmy V excellent reply.

Wild thing blew it for the Phillies

The Phillies bullpen was downright AWFUL in the series. Had no choice but to rely on 99 and the guy was totally burnt out at that point.

Tom Hanks, meet Joe Torre.

Repeat as champions

Welcome to the early 90's.

The Giants won 103 games and didn't even make the playoffs.

That's because the Braves and the Giants were in the same division. It was impossible for them both to make the playoffs. The Braves beat them out.

The AL East says that every year ; )

Best team Won!

Are you serious? Talking about Danny Jackson? That's actually a natural-looking body considering that this was the beginning of the steroid era. There are steroid bodies and then there are natural bodies; that there ain't a steroid body (aesthetically) even if he was on the juice. I don't think his muscles are all that much bigger than mine, really. And I'm completely "natural". He looks like a normal athletic dude. Not Hulk Hogan or Lex Luger like some of the guys playing ball did.

@@Icecreamforcrowtoo that Phillies team was sure jacked.....they were big guys. The moment i saw Dykstra and Daulton.....i was thinking these guys are gonna just obliterate the Jays pitching....

@@Icecreamforcrowtoo you’re a mark.

@@RayFinkle05 No. I just know the difference between roid body and one that could plausibly be achieved naturally.

@@Icecreamforcrowtoo I hope he sees this, bud.
