MLB Legend Sid Bream: 'Road to the World Series' - Iconic Plays & Personal Journey | The Shadows Podcast

Sid Bream etched his name into the annals of Major League Baseball history with one of the sport's most iconic plays. He lived out every child's dream, sliding into home during a tied game in the bottom of the 9th inning, propelling his team to the World Series. And now, on a special episode of the Shadows Podcast, Sid joins us on the "Road to the World Series."

During the podcast, Sid shares insights into his formative years in Pennsylvania, reflecting on the valuable traits and characteristics he inherited from his parents. He delves into the significance of his father, who once harbored dreams of a major league career, witnessing his son's draft to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Sid also sheds light on his time in Pittsburgh and the circumstances that led to his trade from the Pirates to the Braves.

Furthermore, Sid takes us on a journey back to what many consider the greatest World Series ever, the 1991 clash between the Atlanta Braves and the Minnesota Twins. However, it's Game 7 of the 1992 National League Championship Series against his former team, the Pittsburgh Pirates, that Sid is best known for. He recounts the historic slide and the aftermath, including receiving death threats and his complex relationship with fans in Atlanta and Pittsburgh.

Finally, Sid discusses his retirement and shares insights into his ministry with his wife, Michele. To learn more about Sid and Michele Bream's Christ Centered Speakers, visit https://www.sidbream.com/.
