To this day my dad is still bitter about the 94 season and brings it up regularly.
Same here
Tell Him don’t worry The Yankees were poised to beat them in the World Series anyway
As a Jays fan, sorry boys.
Dan- B-Gone Lol
Damn.....its been 26 years
As an expos fan this hurts more than the 2019 World Series win from the Nationals, on the 25th year...
Like being a Browns fan in 2000...
Ughhh and us expos fans just gotta get reminded
The Nationals would be nothing
had they not first been the Expos
Try being a Sonics fan.
David Maschino No, thank you. I was already a fan of the NBA Buffalo Braves until they moved in 1979 and became the San Diego Clippers before they moved to become the Los Angeles Clippers.
As a Montrealer, this video ripped my heart out. I went to about 12 Expos games that summer of 1994...
I remember watching the Red Sox dominate that 2004 World Series after that Miracle comeback against the Yankees in the ALCS. I actually didn't see Pedro Martinez talk about his former Expos team and my goodness that was actually a really nice and genuine display right there. He actually felt for the team and the fans and knew exactly what to say.
If you've ever watched that full interview, Pedro never brings the Expos up himself. He was directly asked about the Expos moving during the Red Sox World Series celebration, and that's when he made the comment about sharing his ring with the fans in Montreal. I know it's a touching bit of Expos Fan Lore, but let's be honest - there's almost a 0% chance that comment would have been made had he not been prompted to speak about the fans in Montreal. I highly doubt he was thinking about the Montreal Expos, or their fans, right after the Red Sox won their first World Series since 1918.
Pedro was obviously speaking genuinely about the Montreal fans, the guy is all heart. Really doesn't matter how the topic came about.
Cardinals Baseball Classics shut up you bitter Cards fan. You’re just mad he dominated your team that year like it was a piece of cake 🤫
@@cardinalsbaseballclassics Ya gotta understand some not obvious stuff. When Vladdy Guerrero was here, he could be spotted alone on a platform waiting for public transit to pick him up. Not something likely to happen in New York, is it?
Montréal was a Frightening Unknown to many, & many players had no trade clauses to it because of that. But there was an opposite as well. Some of the players _loved_ the atmosphere of the city so much that they hated leaving it.
Pédro was one of 'em.
Yeah, it wouldn't have been appropriate for him to mention Montréal during that celebration uninvited. But another Martinez, Dave, the manager of the Nationals once took a salary cut *to stay in Montréal.* While he never lived there in the off-season, André Dawson said that the racism there was less than he'd experienced almost everywhere else in his life.
Gary Carter was learning French, bought a house & had enrolled his daughter in French Immersion school when the owner Charles Bronfman decided to trade him. Dennis Martinez (I think we only had three Martinez) could go out for a bite to eat & *not get disturbed.*
Bryn Smith regretted leaving, & possibly many others. No one wants to make their present team feel bad so they typically don't say it, but Bryn instantly regretted leaving. Even though his best years professionally were elsewhere, & to tell you the truth, the crappy Montréal batting coaches had very nearly effed him up, Andrés Galarraga came back & played for the team a second time towards the end of his career.
It's very likely that none of these guys could have given you a specific reason or set of them as to why they liked the place. Every place is unique. But baseball is a great game for underdogs & who is a greater underdog than the team that has the largest group of players who wouldn't sign with them?
A weird note: even before he became the great pitcher, a lot of people thought that the trade of Randy Johnson for Mark Langston was BS because Langston, a Big Star would never have stayed in Montréal. As it turns out, they were wrong. He *did* leave.
But it was his _wife_ who took an instant dislike to it before even arriving. One of the other players' wives said that she got off the plane grumbling "I don't want to _be_ here, I can't wait to get _out_ of here" based on nothing but preconceived notions. There's _another_ thing going against the Expos, players' _wives_ may not want their husbands to come here.
In a weird story, the Blue Jays lost a free-agent signing because a bad story in Montréal had made the American news & upon hearing that French was spoken in Montréal, a player's wife was terrified that the same thing might happen in Toronto & told him not to sign with them. I think it was Storm Davis, the pitcher.
Weird.
I was an Expos fan in 94, living in Montreal. Went to several home games. Some great games. As soon as the season was canceled I knew it was trouble for the team.
I just realized the Expos were the sacrificial piece that was needed for the Red Sox to win the world series in 2004. Pedro would have stayed in Montreal if the team wasn't relocated.
The team left Montreal almost 7 years after Pedro left for Boston. The relocation had nothing to do with Pedro leaving.
The '94 lockout was the root cause, though, because it was after the lockout that the best players fled. Pedro didn't want to be stuck on a crap team, so he moved on to Boston.
Despite losing 4 All-Stars caliber players by the 1995 season, the amazing thing about the Expos was their uncanny ability to keep bringing up talent out of nowhere that still made the team very enjoyable to watch...
Like how Henry Rodriguez managed to be, for the span of a few months, the biggest buzz in all MLB with a fantastic homerun tear that brought fans to throw 'Oh Henry' candy bars on the field at every game!
How Pedro Martinez became pretty much a player you HAD to watch every time he was out there, because there was something about his pitching talent that made you believe that he could go out there and throw a perfect game on pretty much any day he was starting... (and he nearly did in 1995 by losing a perfect game in the TENTH inning!)
Then came Vlad Guerrero... Just amazing to watch, on every single day!
I enjoyed watching the Expos, still, despite the despicable way the 1994 season ended, despite the best players leaving year after year (Walker, Wetteland, Lansing, Martinez...)
But at a certain point, the abuse becomes too much. Guerrero leaving was that point for me... and then the team moved away.
And I stopped watching pro sports at that point in my life.
That was really nice of Pedro to remember Montreal and mention the fans there during his Sox Series' win. I hadn't known about that. Much respect to Mr. Martinez!
Bring back the Expos!
Move the Rays to Montreal and make it happen MLB
The Nationals won last year, so very doubtful now.
@@RB01.10 there's teams who still face attendance problems though
@@mattc7005 True, true.
I’ve heard teams such as the Mariners have low attendance.
They’ve always been a failed team except 2001. Haven’t been shit since then though.
Only team to not make a World Series appearance as well.
I’m an Oakland A’s fan and I know a thing or two about “almost” making it, my heart goes out to you baseball fans in Canada. I wish you had more teams and I wish one of those teams you had back was your beloved Expos.
Aw I love that Pedro said that in 04, he's such a kind soul, I love that man.
I was an Expos fan visiting my grandparents every summer from England. The team were amazing. I still collect the hats and seem to always see someone in different places of the world who know them, one lady even came up to me on a cruise as her son played for them.
The Nats wore their throwback Expos uniforms a few months ago and they actually do sell Expos hats at the stores here in the DC area as sort of a throwback thing - I hope to wear it at the next Nats throwback uniform game next season
As much as it hurt to see "our" team leave to Washington. Gotta say all the little things the National does to commemorate the past is truly great. It's appreciated.
Even though the Expos aren't at Montreal, I still root for the franchise and that is really nice for D.C. to do that. Heck I even cheer for the Memphis Grizzlies and they aren't in Vancouver anymore.
That sounds great. Next time I'm in DC, I'll look it up.
@Charles George It's ok. We don't care about DC either.
Montreal inn love with the Expos for 50 years! Still love them!
The expos finally got their title, had to leave Canada and change their name to do so, but cheers to Expos fans, would have loved to see that 94 World Series happen, likely matched up against the White Sox. Prime Big Hurt, Walker, Alou, Pedro Martinez, good times.
I really don't think many Expos fans cheer for Washington.
@@zackyep Yeah its the selling of their soul and stealing away their fanbase, but the tampa rays may end up spending part of the season up in Montreal.
@@neilgoldberg547 I hope not. Just fully commit to Montreal already
@@zackyep well its a legit proposal the commish is considering at the moment.
Rays going to Vegas
Good job giving the Expos their due. Love these stories.
That video of Gary Carter'w swing was very heart-warming. He died too soon. He was always positive.
My dad met Carter in an airport many many years ago. He said Carter was a super nice guy and visited with everyone that wanted to have a chat.
Expos drawing more than NYY in the 80’s is surprising
Steven Kunzer even in a Stadium very bad for baseball.
The yankees sucked from 1979-1995 except 1981
The majority of the seasons 1979-1995 were still winning seasons. They were not iconic Yankee teams but most franchises that do not typically win, would be very proud of that stretch. You saying the Yankees sucked is only true comparing them to their previous great eras where they racked up Championships. Also the good but not great Yankees played in Yankee stadium compared to Olympic Stadium so it is still surprising.
1979-1995 included 11 winning seasons for New York, they were not fielding a team full of scrubs either that no one would want to watch in Yankee Stadium. The 0 rings is glaring and only 1 appearance, not very NYY.
Montreal is NYC / paris lit
This is probably my favorite of yours. Didn't know Pedro said that. Even more respect to the dude.
I still wear their throwback hat, I love it.
Same!
Adam Davis That and my 86 Brewers Hat are my favorite 80s throwbacks
Talk about irony: after I clicked, it was preceded by a Washington Nationals ad.
The Expos had the best uniforms in baseball during the 80s!
If not for the strike in 1994, I believe that the Expos would have never left Montreal. There was no way that Atlanta was going to catch them. The Expos lead by 6 games with 38 to play and with not only a very favorable remaining schedule where they played a lot of sub 500 teams {as mentioned in the video}, but they also had 29 out of thier last 48 at Olympic Stadium {where they had a .677 winning percentage at the strike}. I think they not only win the east that year, but probably the whole thing. They were that loaded with talent.
You could tell that the nationals winning the World Series touched Pedro. Not just because of his love for pitching, strasburg and Soto but because his expos finally righted the wrong. He was very emotional in the post game show
Also devastating about 94: Tony Gwynn was on pace to hit .400 and Matt Williams was on pace to break Marris' homerun record.
Griffey, Thomas, Bagwell, there were a few guys that were going to make a serious run at 62 that year.
@@KM-je6bf Bagwell wasn't going to get there due to a broken hand suffered right before the strike.

T Orrent that’s a good one can’t believe I forgot him
The Expos were looking great that year. Woulda been awesome to see Canadian teams win the World Series 3 years in a row.
And this is exactly why owners pushed players towards strike
Absolutely loved the Expos! Those where the days.
The best team that never won the world series. So much talent on this team it was crazy to look who was on the bench each games. Felipe Alou at the summit of his coaching art with ressources to make other coach cry.
They were not only good but fast and cunning. Everyone worked hard and they created points out of thin air.
Yeah.. I miss baseball and especially our '94 Expos.
An excellent team and I wish they had a chance at the post season in 1994. Who knows, if they won the World Series, maybe the team would have had the support to keep the team together, get a new stadium, and instead of 2019 celebrating the Nationals, fans would be celebrating another Expos World Series win.
HOWEVER, I wouldn't call them the best team to never win the World Series. Just taking the teams listed at 4:06, the 1906 Cubs, 1954 Indians, and the 2001 Mariners did not win the World Series. Even had the Expos got hot and won 36 of the 48 canceled games, (a .750 clip), to reach 110-52, their percent would have been .679. The 1906 Cubs 116-36 .763, the 1954 Indians 111-43 .721, and the 2001 Mariners 116-46 .716 would all be better.
@@sdgakatbk 2019 Astros had a very slight edge in winning % over the 1994 Expos. Something like 0.002 or so.
The best record in regular season doesn’t mean World Series champion.
and Tony Gwynn would have batted for .400 that year... great vid tho, did not know the Expos were on that stellar of a run. what a bummer, but good on the Nats for last year's redemption
They were Great! Too bad we never got to see the Expos/Yankees World Series of 1994!
Oh, bull shit! It would have been Indians vs. Expos😉
Had they expanded the postseason in the early 80s, instead of doing it after the strike, the Expos could've capitalize on that and make a few playoff runs, which could also equate to playoff revenue, which may help finance the franchise. Multiple high-80 to 90 win seasons with no October baseball makes this even more heartbreaking
Montreal deserves another chance in the MLB
Yeah, they had some good teams back in the 1980's with Gary Carter, Andre Dawson, Tim Raines, Tim Wallach, etc.
The stadium the Expos played in was built in 1968. Montreal was not going to build a new facility like Toronto’s sky dome. So MLB made up their minds broke the team up and left Montreal. As a Canadian it’s a sad story
*1976
@@JUSTforwhitlisting 1976 was when Olympic Stadium opened
Why couldn't Montreal have an open air stadium? Denver has one in Coors Field. As I write this the morning of April 16, 2020 I am 25 miles from CF. Out my window there's at least 8" of snow.
It’s really sad what could’ve been for them.
Maybe...but if the '90s Braves couldn't build a dynasty then I'm not sure these Expos could have either.
@@87Khein a dynasty would have been unlikely, the financial problems for the Expos were never going to go away. Didn't matter how good the team was, the Olympic Stadium was and remains a pain in the ass to get to we'll pack a full house on a special occasion (Alouettes playoff runs, Expos season opener, a playoff run, etc) but no one wants to haul ass to the east end often enough for it to matter to a ball club. Unlike Toronto, we're built on an island, as rather small one at that, there isn't much place to build that can accommodate an MLB team. Plus the Loony was trading at ~$0.65 USD for much of that period, so salaries cost 35% more on average. We'd have gotten a couple of awesome years, maybe even 3 out of it, but I think we'd have ultimately lost the Expos eventually regardless, but I doubt it would have hurt as much.
And it would have been a murderous division with Montreal's '94 dream team _and_ the '90s Braves.
I just bought a nouveau chapeau au Expos de Montréal.
Congratulations, fellow ExposFan!
Consider buying a jersey to go with it.
This Expos team can't rip my heart out. The Dodgers already did that!
*For three straight years*
Alexander Sandoval and the Dodgers ripped the heart of the Expos in the 1981 NLCS (thanks mainly to Rick Monday)
@@c200065524 I love Rick Monday. Great announcer.
hey at least you have a good team and are a constant playoff and world series contender
At least we got that one perfect game against you guys! El Presidente, El Perfecto!
Well, the Dodgers kind of got their heart ripped out by the Expos this year... With the help of a guy named Howie Kendrick.
I'm just going to myself declare the Expos 1994 world champions. Because why the hell not?
I still talk about that season at work with US baseball fans of my age.
24 September 1979 on a rainy wet Tuesday night in a pennant race vs Pittsburgh Pirates, 56,330 at the Olympic Stadium. Final score Pittsburgh 5 Montreal 3 in 11 innings. Those days are gone!
@Charles George Any news on the proposed downtown stadium? I personally like the big O for baseball.
0:52 that right fielders a savage 😂
What's savage about that? he's just standing there. I didn't see him dehumanize indigenous people
Great content! I'm sure you guys get recommendations all of the time, but it would be cool if you had a whole playlist of content for forgotten/one-off seasons. Great seasons that were forgotten about ('05 White Sox, '94 Expos) or unlikely World Series runs ('90 Reds would be fascinating, '97 or '03 Marlins, '02 Angels, '69 Mets, '87 Twins, '13 and '14 Royals)
There will be no real closure until an Expansion Expos 2.0 win a world series of their own
The first baseball game i ever went to was in Seattle and the expos started a one handed pitcher
Chad Bentz
I thought the tigers were the most depressing team cuz they had such a big opportunity in the early 2000s and now are on of the worst teams
Shoreline Mafia Approved I have the same profile pic on WhatsApp
@@Sparkball No way
Tigers are the most tragedy team in modern baseball
A poetic tragedy! I remember the 1994!
Heading for a 110 wins season with young talent having not yet peaked
I almost cried watching this. The 94 season broke my heart.
After all these years it still breaks my heart... MLB lost me after that ( he says sobbing)
The Blue Jays are my favourite AL team and the Expos were my NL team. The last decade of Expos history was a very tough one and heartbreaking.
My Grandfather told me the story of this when I went to see an Expos game back in 03. I was shocked that baseball really ended before the world series
The 1994 Montreal Expos were the greatest baseball team since 1953. They could do and did everything.
You never went to a game at the Stade. You never experienced the city of Montreal on game day. You never rode the Metro right into the stade (no parking problems here or after the game traffic jams) with 20,000 other fans or felt the enthusiasm of an entire province united by a baseball team. And the very idea that a team could play baseball in French, could bring an entire new culture to the sport and still remain unique was and is beyond your intellectual capacity.
The baseball experience at Stade Olympique was unique. Seven full serve restaurants inside the Stade. 50-cent hot dogs, 90-cent beers, (canadian management never learned to screw the fans) dancing and folk songs on the concourse after the games until late in the night. Creme brouille, meringue, and liver pate sandwiches brought to your seat by the vendors.
And the 7th inning stretch to the tune of "Shake your booty" when every young lady in the park stood up on her seat seat, turned around, and shook it hard enough to be featured on the jumbotron for the fans to vote with their cheering which woman had the best butt at the game was special.
So get a life.
Wow the best team in base ball got screwed over I believe the Spos will return real soon Go Spos Go
wow what a story, can't write this stuff. great job man. i need an expos throwback jersey now.
Some of the best sports stories are these Sadder stories . My favorite 30 for 30 is "Four Falls of Buffalo"
The expos will be back i have faith
The White Sox in ‘94 were leaps and bounds ahead of everyone else, this video could easily apply to them, too. It was another 11 years before they made it to the WS. The strike shortened season almost deserves its own video.
I was ready for an White Sox - Expos World Series in 94.
Unlike a lot of sports teams that destroy their futures in a city because their coaches or players choked at the worst time possible, this is something that wasn’t the Expos fault. This makes this story even sadder.
Late to the video, but the effort into these are amazing. Thank you. As a baseball fan these are always enjoyable to watch.
Well done!...counting the days till the Expos are back!
94 white Sox and 94 expos were on a collision course to the World Series. Strike killed both teams
The 94 expos will always be the champions in 1994 they had the best record so they get the trophy in my eyes
Holy crap...never knew this story...that 1994 strike was fucked up for the Expos historic win record.... shit...
6:05 cool catching gear.
6:29 maybe all they needed do was remember they're expos roots to get over the hump and also out would have cool if they listed them as Montreal on the scoreboard.
This is why I stopped watching baseball for 21 years.
I want my Expos back!!!
Was waiting to see if you would mention John Wettlland then...... you did , of course you did
your badazz ! Great channel & Great content !
Keep doing your thing much respect!
Holy crap was that team loaded! Just a sad ending to what should have been a possible WS title
I was 12 in 1994, my heart still aches.
Im so happy that MLB has a 16 team postseason now. Its finally a real sports league now!
The most depressing team was the 2001 Seattle Mariners
Even the 1995 Mariners. That team was stacked. I'm not even a Mariners fan but they've had some incredible rosters and should have some WS victories to show for it
Yes but they ended up failing in the playoffs, the Expos never got a chance in the 1994.
You still got a team though.
the 94 strike killed me,
Why aren't they created at least with the National League pennant for easily having the best record in the East, and baseball as a whole? Tony Gwynn's astounding .390 average has been maintained despite "only" having 475 plate appearances.
Another factor is the $CDN/$US exchange rate. For Canadian teams, most of their revenue comes in as $CDN, but player salaries are in $US, so a lower exchange rate makes it harder to support payroll. The exchange rate was reasonably good in the early 90s - generally a Canadian dollar was about 80-85% of the US dollar. It fell in the mid-90s to around 70-75%. By the late 90s it fell below 70%, eventually reaching as low as 62.5% in 2002. This would not have started the team's decline or money woes (and the Jays and Canadian NHL teams faced the same issue), but it would sure have accelerated their decline in the final years.
Montreal Expos All-Time Winning Pct. (1969-2004) (incl. 5W, 5L in postseason games): .483
St. Louis Browns All-Time Winning Pct. (1902-1953) (incl. 2 wins, 4 losses in 1944 WS): .433
What's REALLY DEPRESSING is that for the hapless Browns to win their only Pennant, it took a World War
that decimated rosters, leaving them with players who were very old, very young, and others unfit for armed service.
Oh this team has been tugging at my heart for years...
How about the Brewers?
Milwaukee only can brag about going to the world series once since becoming a team in 1970!
I really wanted to see 1994 White Sox vs Expos
HamsterK1977 White Sox had a great young staff back then.
Darrin Fletcher the catcher is my uncle
I was at the game where he got that one stolen base lol
I have an uncle who pitched for the phillies
Cool
Hitman_btg yea he was slow
I have a cousin who was a starter for the cardinals
Literally Crying...
The uniforms were lit, ahead of our time
Every time I wear my Expos hat, no matter where I am in Canada, someone will come up and greet me by pointing and saying, "expos!"
I remember how everyone thought it was going to be an expos/white sox world series.
As a Yankees fan, the team that Montreal most likely would have faced, I really want to hate Pedro Martinez. I mean, we all saw what that bum did to Don Zimmer... but that was a real classy move on his part. It's too bad the numbers are down across baseball, and they can't afford expansion. Canada does deserve more representation in the MLB.
Marquis Grissom caught the final out of the World Series for my Braves the next year.
This hard to listen for people with no emtional connection to the team...Now, imagine being a 17 yo die hard fan kid, getting trough this and seeing your team being robbed from you. I was a good baseball player, playing the highest level of competition available to me for my age, at the time. I dropped EVERYTHING related to baseball, i was disgusted, hurt and i had to get rid of everything remerbering me the pain of that lost... And to be honest, it's still hurt...It took me 29 yo to comeback to baseball. There is a city, close to where i live, that has Frontier league team, Les aigles de Trois-rivieres. I started to go see games the last 2 years. Im happy that im back to this game and i also feel sad about it. I did put something on pause that was a real source of hapyness to me. The departure of the Montreal Expos made me not want to enjoy a game that, i rememember now, i love to death. That's the kind of impact that the the lost of the Montreal Expos had on people life over here. Im happy baseball is back in my life, i feel more happy and closer now to what im really am.
I feel like if the 1994 Strike never happened, it’s entirely possible that the Expos are still around in 2023.
bro I live in Montreal and we're still bitter about that. trust me
You are an amazing youtuber. Keep up the good work!
Can we just declare them the champs of 1994.
to be fair the reason the Yankees didn't have great attendance in the 80's is because Yankee Stadium was in the Bronx which in the 1980's is pretty much the inspiration for LA in the film Predator 2.
The most gut-wrenching baseball season ever. As far as I'm concerned, they should have a flag on the World Series trophy for 1994. MLB would NEVER have allowed what happened to the Expos to happen if they had been an American team. I haven't watched a single baseball game since the Expos left Montreal because I realised that baseball was no longer a sport, but an auction. Whoever bids the highest payroll wins.
And that was the only ever "player" strike right?. If so that makes it worse. That run shut down by their peers.
The title says it all. I listened to virtually all Expos games (as a teenager) from 1976 to 1983. Real nerd. I was living in US when this strike happened. No Americans fans cared about the strike. It felt like it was a set-up to prevent a Canadian team to win 3 World Series in a row. I lost interest in baseball. My conclusion was that the players were less interested in winning baseball than the fans. This year (2019) I told everybody at work that my Expos won the World Series (noting at the same time the pathetic move of the team.) I'm sad that my mother (a big fan of the Expos) wasn't alive to see the Nationals win this year.
The problem is that tickets are so gosh darn expensive. It is hard to support the lifestyles of baseball players even though we like them.
Let’s be honest the expos probably would’ve blew 1994
Crap... Probably would have lost game five of the NLDS.
I dunno, John Wetteland was an absolute savage in the 'pen
@@brentgerchicoff8084 Now, he's savage for reasons completely unrelated to the sport of baseball, oh, how the mighty have fallen.
Expos Braves NLCS would’ve gone either way
@@therealjaystone2344 They had already smoked the Braves that yr. They were unbeatable
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 THE MONTREAL EXPOS WERE (AND STIIL ARE) MY FAVOURITE TEAM. THE EXPOS GOT SCREWED WHEN THEY LEFT!!!!!
Should have easily been an Expo v Yankee World Series...and it would have been a great one!!!
What’s also depressing about the strike was tony gwynn who was hitting in the .390’s before the strike happened and he might have.... MIGHT have been the newest person to ever hit .400. We’ll never know
Rocky had Russia in his corner?
In the movie, like halfway through the match, the Russian fans start rooting for Rocky. Dumbest thing ever
Ya like jazz
The 1969 Cubs are the most heartbreaking team of all time.
David Ralph miracle mets heartwarming
The 2020 MLB season is the most depressing season in MLB history
Nah, at least we'll have a winner, unlike 1994.
