Eddie Murray & The 1983 World Series Championship Winning Baltimore Orioles
The Baltimore Orioles were on top of the baseball world in 1983. Not only did they have the American League’s two best players in their infield(Ripken was the MVP that year, with Murray finishing in second place), but they also won the World Series.
Defeating the Philadelphia Phillies 4-games-to-1, the Orioles made quick work of the National League champions en route to the World Series title. In those 5 games, Eddie Murray collected 5 hits in 20 at-bats including two crucial home runs that cemented two of the team’s four victories.
