For the second year in a row the Philadelphia Phillies were facing the Los Angeles Dodgers, with the Dodgers winning the previous year on their way to the World Series.
Sadly for the City of Brotherly Love, the result would end up being the same as the Dodgers would go on to win three games to one, culminated by a dramatic 10-inning walk-off win in Game 4, which you see depicted on the card here.
On the flip side, as you all know, 1978 would repeat 1977 for the Dodgers yet again, this time with them losing against the New York Yankees in the World Series for a second year in a row.
But they’d get their revenge a few years later when they’d face the Bronx Bombers in 1981, this time beating them and taking home their first championship since 1965.
Coming up next week, the American League Championship Series card that “never was”, followed by one card each for each game of the 1978 World Series.
