2004 World Series Film - Boston Red Sox vs. St. Louis Cardinals DVD
No, its not a dream. In the 100th World Series championship ever played, the Boston Red Sox swept the St. Louis Cardinals to become World Series Champions. For 86 years Red Sox fans cursed everthing from their luck to Babe Ruth as they watched others celebrate victory in the Fall Classic. But this year promised to be different. They swept past the heavy-hitting Anaheim Angels and then faced the New York Yankees in the ALCS. The Red Sox fell behind their archrival three games to none--and relinquished 19 runs in Game Three. Still, they refused to die. Boston won the next two at Fenway Park--and completed the greatest comeback in the history of sports--at Yankee Stadium. Riding a crest of momentum, Boston advanced to the World Series, where they faced a St. Louis squad that had won more games than any other team in 2004. But by now, the Red Sox were unstoppable--and it took just four games to capture the title and extinguish forever the talk of a curse. Rest assured Red Sox Nation. You are living a dream--a dream come true.

L.A. Dodgers 1988 World Series Collector's Edition 7-Disc DVD Set
The last month of the 1988 Major League Baseball season was dominated by Orel Hershiser's record-setting scoreless-innings streak. But while Hershiser closed the season with 59 consecutive scoreless innings, the Los Angeles Dodgers entered the postseason as distinct underdogs. First they needed to overcome the mighty New York Mets: the winners of 100 games featured deep pitching, balanced power and a battle-tested roster. Then awaiting in the Fall Classic would be the powerful Oakland Athletics. Led by the Bash Brothers, Jose Canseco and Mark McGwire, this stacked squad had won 104 games and then swept the Boston Red Sox in the American League Championship Series. But as the seven games in this remarkable DVD collection prove, "that's why they play the games." The Dodgers had the ever-optimistic motivation of Manager Tommy Lasorda. The Dodgers had the ferocity and bulldog determination of Hershiser. The Dodgers had the singular cast of players who far exceeded the sum of the parts and became an unstoppable team. Finally, the Dodgers had the inspirational lion-hearted leadership of the 1988 National League MVP Kirk Gibson, who with one dramatic swing crushed the spirit of the Athletics and carved out a special place in the World Series pantheon. This 7-disc DVD collectible is the perfect gift for the Dodgers enthusiast in your life! Running time is approximately 17 hours, 50 minutes total plus extras.
