In this episode Mad Dog is digging up the story of one of the greatest baseball teams to never win the world series, the 1994 Montreal Expos. Unlike the rest of the teams covered in this podcast series, the '94 Expos were a victim of circumstances beyond their control. Offensively they were led by Larry Walker, Moises Alou, Marquis Grissom and Cliff Floyd, while on the hit their staff was led by Ken Hill and a young, 22 year old future Hall of Famer in Pedro Martinez. Behind a strong balance of timely hitting and stellar pitching the Expos raced out to the best record in baseball and seemed destined for a post-season appearance. However, labor disputes between the Owners and the MLBPA led to a work stoppage that would rob baseball of the World Series.
