In 1982 the Philadelphia Phillies finished just outside the playoff reckoning, three games behind the eventual World Series-winning St. Louis Cardinals in the National League East. The Phils were in the middle of one of their best eras in franchise history, winning the World Series in 1980 and appearing in the 1983 edition of the Fall Classic.
