For baseball fans their favorite team's stretch run is something that lives on and on even through generations. Starting with the Miracle Braves of 1914 (they were in Boston at the time), we talk about some of the most memorable stretch runs over the past 120 years. A great stretch run should be combined with a World Series victory. We did not adequately mention the 2008 Phillies who came from behind (again) to beat our choking Mets and went on to win their second World Series overall and their first in 28 years.
