As a Yankee fan still my favorite World Series win out of the 5 since this one
Jim Leyritz's 3 run home run in the 8th to tie it is one of the most important home runs in Yankees history. So underrated too. If he doesn't hit that home run or the Yankees don't score those 3 runs, they likely would have gone down 3-1 in the series.
It's crazy how the dynamics of the rematch in 1999 evolved. In this 1996 World Series, the Braves were heavily favored being the more experienced team with lots of talent and coming off a championship. They took a 2-0 series lead and everyone thought that was it for the Yankees. Fast forward 3 years and the Yankees were the favorites over the Braves, having won 2 in the last 3 years. Only difference is the Yankees finished the job in 4 games unlike the Braves in 1996. Being a Yankees fan I thought the Braves would put up a tougher battle in 1999, but not to be.
They were calling themselves the team of the decade before they were beaten twice by the team of the century.
That '99 NLCS really tired them out. The Mets gave them a run for their money and tired the hell out of their bullpen after being down 3 games to 0 and then forcing a Game 6.
Torre told George, don't worry well win the next 4. Yanks were unstoppable those years
The Braves have had a lot of postseason disappointments over the years but nothing is worse than this World Series. Atlanta literally just won a World Series six months ago and this choke job still bothers me.
I agree, especially winning the first 2 in New York, the Jim Leyritz bomb changed the whole series
You guys gotta make more of these
Definitely I agree these are invaluable
The start of a Dynasty
im still pissed they tore down the old stadium.
After the Braves won the first two games I went online to an Atlanta newspaper. The reporter said that the Yankees didn't belong on the same field as the Braves. Then he wrote that maybe the 1927 and 1961 Yankees didn't either. After each of the next four games his tune changed a whole lot.
Oh they were talking major smack. Then got swept in their own house.
Joe Buck still sucks 25 years later.
Awesome 👍👍 series since then finish my military 🪖🪖🪖🎖️🎖️ career in 2009 loss 14 family members including MOM DAD REST IN POWER TO ALL SEE U SOON
Back when starting pitching was epic. Also the 90s were the last great decade when fans would pay attention to the game without smartphones and social media.
After over 40 years in the vending business, my best event ever. Working at the Old Stadium for 15 years, it was nice seeing my own dynasty!!!
The Yankees of old had just a different temperament about them a different character about them then most teams they went through a lot of stuff back then but they always persevered through everything they were a resilient team I can’t say that about today’s Yankees with all due respect to them because they’re pretty good team but they don’t have the character of those great Yankees teams and that’s why they don’t win as often that’s my point of view as a Yankee fan
They had toughness, and a team mentality. Unlike the bums of the last decade who can't even win a division.
Also helped that they had a manager who wasn't actively mismanaging games and thinks having the players watch the footage of the 2004 choke job is a good way to motivate them...
It'll take more than a title for Boone to make up for these.
The steroids didn’t hurt either
Game 4 of this series began the transference of the title of "Team of the 90s."
I think about Strawberry and Gooden who were on this team and also on the 86 Mets. Down the first two games of the WS and then come back to win. 10 years apart, both for NY teams. But then Wade Boggs being on the losing end ten years earlier.
crazy how the braves blew the series after being up 2-0
And winning the first 2 at the Bronx
When starting pitching was great
Exactly what I'm looking for❤!!!!
I remember watching this with my mom when I was about 13
I was 13 too
Thx for upload 🙂
I wish Aldrete was Mattingly
The braves needed a better bullpen and a legit closer and they would have won more than one World Series.
I still can't believe the yankees beat the braves the braves had the best team in all pitching hitting and great defense
braves should’ve won this series :(
I’m a Yankees fan
@@jacobstopper3804 braves fan here
@@FleecyElf I can see that
But they didn't
@@tomfaranda that’s what I was thinking
Braves need some payback even after just winning last season.
This bears no resemblance to the crap MLB offers today. Thanks for posting.
Atlanta should've won this series in 5
braves dynasty. but 1time ws.
First
