When the Atlanta Braves beat the Cleveland Indians in six games to win the 1995 World Series, Bob Costas called the final out for TV by saying “…the team of the 90’s has its world championship.”
The so-called “Team of the 90’s” had been to three of the last five World Series’, and won four-straight division titles. At the end of the ’95 season, most just assumed that with the frustration caused by World Series losses in 1991 and 1992 over, Atlanta was built to win more Commissioner’s Trophies before the decade came to a close.
