1. The 1993 World Series: Toronto Blue Jays vs Philadelphia Phillies
The Toronto Blue Jays — the defending champions — sleek, corporate, efficient — featuring an offensive arsenal that hit a collective 0.311 in the six-game series. The Philadelphia Phillies — a last-to-first success story — with their long hair, beards, and blue-collar work ethic — a softball team in pinstripes. This was a World Series that won't soon be forgotten. A six-game slugfest that sent pitchers scurrying to the showers. The heroes were named Dykstra, Molitor, Schilling and Alomar. The games were unforgettable. The sheer drama of Game Four — with its runs, hits, and duration — all records. The surgical precision of Curt Schilling's shutout in Game Five. And Joe Carter's incredible three-run blast to win Game Six — just the second time in history a home run has ended a World Series.
