We saw Babe Ruth and the legendary Yankees make their debut and Ruth and his mates did not disappoint rolling the Gas House Gang in six games. The 1936 Tigers did comeback however and take their revenge on the Yanks beating the 1993 team while the 1998 Phillies lead by Terry Francona stunned the 1929 Cubs in six games. The champion 1967 Cardinals showed that pitching is the magic formula throwing three shutouts in their series win against the 1951 Bucs.

The greatest individual effort was of course Mickey Brantley who had 9 RBI in game one of the 1987 Mariners series with San Diego. Brantley would walk off the game with a grand slam, but in typical Mariners style the team would lose the series. Then there was Grover Cleveland Alexander who was magnificent in a series clinching shutout where he allowed three hits on 97 pitches; the 1913 Phillies won their deadfall series with the Braves. Finally there were the 106 loss Braves who win their series and leave lasting hope for teams that everyone thinks this game has forgotten.
