Phillies Miracle Matchup (1986)

[jnolan33177]

Giants fans are the worst!! Go on any othe teams pages and fb comments and you dont see anyone saying Phillies to Red Sox WE ARE CHAMPS LOSERS, or ya dont see the Cardinals fans to ANgels fans YOU ARE LOSERS!! WE ARE WINNERS NOW!! But whenever the Giants fan sees the word Phillie the j@rkoff reflex kicks in, because they know theyre trying to talk to the best team in baseball, and because thats all they won, they try to live in the past!! They won the WS and still get no love

Which team was the winner? I'd go with the team from the 70s.

RIP Harry Kalas

[pbft430]

Harry Kalas was the best. I'm going to miss him. He was the Phillies for me. I don't know what I'm going to do when I watch the Phillies this summer.

wow cool!! Harry kalas sounds different!

[AshburnStadium]

Harry did sound different in his earlier years. His golden pipes weren't as mellowed by Scotch whisky or his favorite Parliaments.

I also noticed a change in Harry's voice after Whitey passed away.

Who won?

It should be noted that 1983 was the last year any of Philadelphia's four major sports teams won a championship (that year's 76ers). This is the longest drought of any American city with teams in all four leagues (MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL).

[88HJS]

Also note that all four teams have been to the championship series and lost since then.
