Ted ZanidakisThe 1950 "Whiz Kids" broke the long 35 year drought and got the Phillies into World Series.
Then, there seems to be a 15 (+/- 1 yr) repeating pattern of the Phillies making it into the W.S.
That is the way I see it. And, of course the one exception is 1964 (as TBOB alluded to the "Mauch hex").
Where they had the NL pennant and blew it. As I said, I'm still holding on to my 1964 Phillies W.S. tickets.
It's looking like your Mets are not only going to lose the East division....they perhaps will not be in the
Play-offs. If the Phillies beat them out, this event will rival the 1951 Dodgers' demise to the Giants.
