1988 World Series Artwork: Mug

By Vintage Brand™ not affiliated with or sponsored by Los Angeles Dodgers
The 1988 World Series was the 85th edition of the World Series, it was a best-of-seven playoff played between the American League champion Oakland Athletics and the National League champion Los Angeles Dodgers, with the Dodgers upsetting the heavily favored Athletics to win the Series in five games. It is best known for the pinch-hit walk-off home run hit by Dodgers outfielder Kirk Gibson, who could barely walk due to injuries suffered during the NL Championship Series, against Athletics closer Dennis Eckersley in Game 1. The Dodgers were the only MLB team to win more than one World Series title in the 1980s; their other World Series title during the decade came in 1981 (they also broke a 10-year streak of 10 different World Series champions going back to 1978). Although Gibson's home run has become an iconic World Series moment, it was World Series MVP Orel Hershiser who capped a dominant 1988 season in which he set the all-time scoreless inning streak at 59 innings, recorded five straight shutouts, led the league with 23 wins, and won the Cy Young and Gold Glove awards.
