Rivalries

[edit]
  • Braves-Phillies rivalry - Both teams have battled against each other in the NL East for a couple of decades, such as both teams have the most titles in that division. Also had a memorable 1993 NLCS.
  • Dodgers–Phillies rivalry - Both teams competed for the 1950 National League pennant (Wh the Dodgers were still in Brooklyn, and faced each other in five storied National League Championship Series (1977, 1978, 1983, 2008, and 2009), the most frequent match-up in the history of the NLCS, tied with the Cincinnati Reds and Pittsburgh Pirates match-up. The Dodgers have also recently employed many of the Phillies former stars, such as Chase Utley, Jimmy Rollins, and Carlos Ruiz. Source:[47][48]
  • Orioles-Yankees rivalry - This has been deleted twice, but based on the number of sources provided by the Braves-Mets rivalry, this should meet notability. The Yankees franchise started in Baltimore as the Orioles before moving to New York. Babe Ruth was from Baltimore. Bobby Murcer hitting a game winning hit for the Yankees against the Orioles the first game back from the Yankees mourning of their catcher and captain Thurmon Munson who had tragically died in a plane crash. Cal Ripken Jr. broke the consecutive games record held by Lou Gehrig. Jeffrey Maier has his own page, as the kid who deflected a batted ball, hit by Derek Jeter, into the Yankee Stadium stands for what umpires ruled to be a home run, rather than fan interference during Game 1 of the 1996 ALCS. Derek Jeter hitting a walk off against the Orioles in his last game at Yankee Stadium. Several notable moments have happened including fierce competition during the 1970's and 1990's.
