Talk:1993 World Series

Comment

"Had the Phillies won Game 6 and then Game 7, the World Series MVP award would have reverted to the Phils' Len Dykstra, primarily so that Bobby Richardson of the 1960 New York Yankees would remain, and still is, the only World Series MVP from a losing team."

There is no guarantee of this, and even if it had happened that wouldn't be the primary reason. I'm going to take it out unless someone can prove it. Priester 23:18, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Opening section sucks

Way too much irrelevant trivia info in the first part of the article. No one cares about Andersen or Daulton, or that it was the xth world series where x happened. 142.165.247.221 (talk) 01:53, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

Unclear Statement

"Three new World Series records were set, including the longest game (4:14), most total runs scored in a single game (29), and most runs scored by a losing team (14). Also, Charlie Williams became the first African American to serve as the home plate umpire for a World Series game.

Two death threats directed towards Williams were phoned into Veterans Stadium as soon as it became evident that Williams was going to be the losing pitcher of Game 4. Williams was not aware of the death threats until after Game 5."

Which Williams are we talking about here? Mitch Williams the losing pitcher, most likely, but, since he was JUST talked about, Charlie Williams?

Upgrade to C Class

Definitely needs continued work, but I assess that this has progressed well beyond the Start stage. HalifaxRage (talk) 16:22, 11 January 2020 (UTC)

Define major sports leagues

"This victory, along with the Montreal Canadiens winning the Stanley Cup four months earlier, was the last major North American professional sports championship won by a Canadian team until Toronto FC won the MLS Cup in 2017."

How are we defining "major..."? On the Wikipedia page with that title, we see about the "Big Four". Then, the "Other notable professional leagues" section lists Major League Soccer and the Canadian Football League.

If only the Big Four are considered, Canada has still not seem a champion since the Blue Jays of 1993. If we do count both secondary leagues, thirty-plus Canadian teams have won. Yitz711 (talk) 01:01, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
