The 1995 Indians made the playoffs and would make their way to their first World Series since 1954. Hosted by Bob Costas, MLB Network Presents is a series of documentaries and access-driven profiles that air during on MLB Network.
Let's face facts: The Indians and the Braves were the two top candidates for the moniker Team Of The 90's and the results were Atlanta won one World Series, Cleveland didn't win one in two attempts but who overshadowed both teams? You know who! My New York Yankees!
I was 15 years old when this happened. It had been 16 years since the Pirates went to the World Series and all I could think at that time is that the Pirates will be back in the World Series before 41 years. Well, it’s now been 44 years since 1979. It could be another 70 or 80 years before they get back to the World Series with how things are going. GM Ben Cherington, well, I can see why Boston fired him. It’ll be the 40’s before this laughingstock joke of an organization gets back to the playoffs and even then they’ll just lose.
