1975 World Series come backs from both Cincy and Boston

There are a few that have happened recently that come to mind

The D-Backs come from behind victory against Mariano Rivera’s Yankees in game 7 of the 2001 World Series.

The Angels come from behind victory against the Giants to win game 6 of the 2002 World Series which gave them the momentum to take game 7.

The come from behind of the Red Sox against the Yankees in the 2004 ALCS game 4 and ultimately winning 4 straight games. The Yankees had a 3 game lead.

I recall a very sad day in 1969 at the Astrodome when the Mets gave up 10 runs with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning and thus lost to the Astros. The Mets’ mystique that year had no effect on their expansion counterpart, who took 10 out of their 12 games, including all six in Houston. The Astros added insult to injury as in the second game of the doubleheader they scored 10 runs with two outs in the bottom of the fourth. When the smoke cleared, the Mets had fallen from second place to fourth. Thank God they were headed home to Shea and a visit from the Padres!

2001 when the idians overcame a 12-run deficit to win it against seattle

Even though it was seven games, the 2004 ALCS where the Red Sox came back to beat the Yankees was the best comeback in baseball history, in my opinion.

1993 Blue Jays were losing 14-5 in the 8th and came back to defeat the Phillies 15-14 in 9 innings

On August 5, 2001, the Indians were losing 12-0 by the 3rd inning. They stated the comback in the 7th by scoring 3 runs in the 7th, 4 in the 8th and 5 in the 9th to tie the game at 14. In the bottom of the 11th…

INDIANS 11TH: Diaz popped to shortstop; Lofton singled to
center; Vizquel singled to right [Lofton to second]; Cabrera
singled to left [Lofton scored, Vizquel to second]; Indians
first time since 1925 A’s to come back from a 12-run
deficit; 1 R, 3 H, 0 E, 2 LOB. Mariners 14, Indians 15.

i yhink thr biggest comeback was last year 2005 for the houston astros. everyone thought htey were out of the running for the penantbut they won the playoffs and ended up in the wotld series. so i think they deserve the honor of having the best comeback,

They havent yet made a big comback as a team, they’re all big cry babies about money they’re not playing for love of the game!

Daniel Z December 29, 2010 at 7:03 am

The Red Sox 3 games to 1 deficit in the 2004 ALCS. Has never ever been done before in baseball! Truly the BIGGEST CHOKE by the YANKEES in the history of sports!

mattbloom24 December 29, 2010 at 7:26 am

the best comeback ever actually was a 7 game series, the Yankees took the first 3 then the Red Sox took the last 4 the first time in history a team has been down 3 games and took the ALCS.

Topher December 29, 2010 at 7:55 am

the KC Royals this year will go to WS after a boost after ASB then lose to Cards in 4.
