Since there is an off day today for the World Series as everything picks up and heads to Tampa Bay, it’s a good time to think about the Phillies and their own World Series history.
Playing in eight different versions, the Phillies have a 2-6 record in them, famously winning in 1980 and 2008, losing in 1915, 1950, 1983, 1993, 2009 and 2022. The guess here is that many of you don’t really remember much of what happened in the 1915 or 1950 versions, but the other five have had several different things
happen that were memorable.
What is your favorite memory from any of the World Series that the Phillies were participants in? Obviously the last out of the ones that won are going to stick out, but for me, I’ll always remember 2009 Game 3 version. I was sitting in the 200 level of Citizens Bank Park, about even with the right field wall. I will never forget that Alex Rodriguez’s “home run” hit that camera and should have been ruled a double.
