At some point that night, stadium security just quit checking for ticket stubs, so people were walking up to the gate from the bars and just walking in to the stadium.
Story about this night. I live in South Jersey. At the time I was a bread delivery driver. I would get up for work at 12:30am. This double header was supposed to begin as they all did in those days at 5:05pm. But as we all know the weather didn't cooperate. Because I have to get up as an asinine hour, I went to bed at about 7pm, during a rain delay(and if there was no rain the first game would probably have been done by this time). When I got up, the first game was almost over. I left my house and game was 1 was over. I get to my warehouse just as game 2 is beginning so I put it on the radio in my truck as I'm loading. Now my route was a hike up the parkway so I get to my route and I'm listening to the game making my drops. The game finally ends while I'm waiting for my first supermarket to open. Surreal doesn't describe it.
If I remember the GKR story correctly, the Mets once had a game in Atlanta that was delayed by rain and it didn't until 2 or 3 in the morning and because it was fireworks night, they set off the fireworks at 3 in the morning.
That’s what known as the Rick Camp game. He was a relief pitcher that hit a game-winning homerun for the Braves. They did set off the fireworks, and the story goes some frantic Atlanta citizens called the cops thinking the city was under attack by the Russkies or something.
The July 4th Rick Camp game they set off fireworks at 4:30 am and as it was the Cold War people in the surrounding neighborhood thought the Russians were invading
1993 was kind of a crossroads for the Phillies and Padres. For the Phillies, 1993 would be their foremost in the 1990s. They would go to the World Series, lose to the Blue Jays, and have 7 straight losing seasons, bottoming out at 65-97 in 2000. The Padres, on the other hand, would slowly improve, catching the NL West title twice (1996 and 1998) and making it to the 1998 World Series. For all intents, the Padres actually had a better 1990s than the Phillies did.
One time My Mets,back in the 80s. They had a game end at 4 am. They had pitchers finishing the game in the outfield and Gary Carter playing 3rd base for whatever inning it was. What I loved it was The 4th Of July game. They were blasting off fireworks at like 4:104:15 in the morning. On top of that nobody left. lol
The San Diego fans got a taste of what it is like for us east coast fans - an opposite coast road game starting in the 10 pm hour their time, going into extra innings, and ending in the 1 am hour their time. The Phillies and Padres used to play each other 12 times a season, 6 in each season. Usually, these were 3-game series. Their first 1993 meetings in Phila. were in mid-April. The 3rd game was rained out. The Phillies were happy to escape facing Benes, but it set up that Friday night twi-night doubleheader on Friday, July 2.
I wonder if the kids in the stands didn’t get the memo that the fireworks after the game were cancelled. Which leads to a fun fact: since the fireworks were cancelled the Phillies were nice enough to honor your ticket from the doubleheader the next night so you didn’t miss the fireworks giving you three games for the price of one.
I seemed to remember reading about this game back in the day, talked to some fellow baseball-loving friends about it, and now - for the first time ever in my life - I get to see all the good bits of it.
Imagine falling asleep at 11pm, waking up at 3am thinking you’ve overslept and a baseball game is still playing. I’d think I was either having an out of body experience or still dreaming
Glad to see how much you’ve grown. I came across a vid of yours a few months back, subbed then, but I can really see how much you’ve improved. Can’t wait to see what’s in store!
It's wild that second game was played at all; 1:30am should be well past the point of waiting out a delay. But as far as I can tell there were no protests from the mlbpa, no lawsuits, and there were no rules changed as a result is this. All the articles I can find on this game have the players all looking back laughing about it but they looked truly miserable out there at the time. I guess it didn't really matter with one team way out in first and the other in dead last. Nice find, Olive!
BRO!!! What the fuck.... Padres vs Tigers 1984 World Series! As a huge fan of the Padres since the days of Winfield and from Michigan so also a die-hard Tigers am stunned you totally got your info wrong, I dig you and what you do but come on man ...... din't read all the comments so sorry if others mentioned it... :)
this would NEVER happen today. They'd find a way to run it later in the year. At least i hope they would. Also starting a doubleheader at 4 PM. Thats just asking for trouble. 😂😂
The Phillies and Padres had already played a game that took 14 innings in April and the Phillies and Dodgers went on to need TWENTY innings to decide a winner just 5 days after this one. The Phillies won all 3 because 1993 was a miracle season if there ever was one. Yeah, they lost in the WS but the 6 years before and the 7 years after 1993 were all losing seasons. The ‘93 team used steroids and mojo to come within 2 wins of a totally out of nowhere championship in a sport where teams almost never made the playoffs out of nowhere. Only 4 division winners made the postseason back then. The ‘93 Giants won 103 games didn’t get in.
The thing that REALLY won the division was that notoriously injury-prone players Daulton, Kruk, Hollins, Incaviglia, and Dykstra combined for ONE trip to the disabled list.
And Hollins who broke his hand and was supposed to miss six weeks came back in two weeks. I don’t know what trainer Jeff Cooper was giving those players (well maybe I do hahaha) but they didn’t miss much time. And of those five Inky was the only one who was part of a platoon. Fregosi was getting the best out of those platoons too. Incaviglia was only a couple homers shy of 30 even with Milt Thompson getting significant time of his own in left field. The Morandini/Duncan 2nd base platoon and the Eisenreich/Chamberlain right field platoon each hit and fielded well too. Dykstra, Daulton and Kruk had career years and it’s weird seeing this game with none of them including Hollins getting the start since they started game one. Yet you knew it wouldn’t be till they came off the bench and were like “if I’m pinch hitting you might as well put me into the game.” Still my favorite team of all time and the team that got me to fall in love with baseball as a child. Now if only Fregosi didn’t use the living hell out of the arms of West, Andersen, and Williams which each had 70 appearances during that regular season and what do you know they all made appearances in this game hahaha. By the time they got to Toronto they were spent.
I immediately thought “umm something isn’t right here” and immediately my brain just plugged in Harry’s call for me. Can you believe the Phillies had three different tv crews back then since the games were on PHL 17, Prism and Sportschannel. Whitey and Harry were on PHL 17 and the radio call of the game when they weren’t on tv.
7 teams actually. The Rockies and Marlins were new. The next season they realigned with 3 divisions. Sucks that the Padres were the only team to ever finish as low as 7th place in the west.
100% chance if I was the home plate ump I'm calling that runner safe on the passed ball
Literally zero doubt in my mind
@@JollyOlive mad respect to him for making the right call tho

At least the Phillies have actually won the World Series before. Twice.
At least the Phillies won 2 games in their World Series. To date the Padres have 1 win in World Series play.
I’m sure Lenny Dykstra was able to provide the Phillies with some tips* for staying up late.

8:32 what an absolutely wild delivery, also I love finding baseball content channels I didn't know about before!
Jolly Olive pumping out that Padres content
At one point most of the fans had left, but around 3am a lot of fans began funneling in after the bars started closing and fans were admitted for free

I stayed up and watched this game. My mom thought I was lying that the game was live.
No better way to start the day
"I don't know how you can sleep with philly fans screaming around you" dude for us philly fans thats a white noise machine.
Glad to see how much you’ve grown. I came across a vid of yours a few months back, subbed then, but I can really see how much you’ve improved. Can’t wait to see what’s in store!
A baseball game of players who haven't slept in 72 hours is something I would watch.
Oh, and Fun Fact: A few days later the Phils would have another marathon game beating the Dodgers 7-6 in 20 innings. This was Kevin Stocker's debut.
Funny seeing the recent "retro" phillies logo with the outline of the new stadium, CBP, while watching a game played in their old stadium, the Vet.
“Swing and a belt, left field, way back, the Blue Jays win it”
Miss them 93 Phillies
5:25 - "I don't think I've ever seen a batter choke up on the bat more than Mickey Morandini."
Felix Millan says hello.
And Ron Hunt...
keep it up! love the content! keep the mini docs coming
I remember this. My parents and I were supposed to go to this game but the forecast of rain scared us off.
Just started watching your channel last week. Wanted to let you know that your work is awesome, keep it up and Let’s Go Mets!
Was a big Jim Eisenreich fan, a real underdog story
Yo falling asleep early sounds awesome, I'm jealous
Fun fact. Mitch Williams’ son goes to school with me. He plays catcher in baseball and he’s the quarterback and sometimes plays safety in football
U live in Medford lol?
Technically this is the earliest game
There might be a typo in the Padres season. 67-101 means they played 168 games.
Gary Sheffield had “loads of potential?” Dude nearly won the Triple Crown in 92!

There's only a curfew if one of the teams has to travel right after a game.
Imagine taking the saying ‘spending the day at the ballpark’ completely literally
nicely done :) heading to sleep after watching this, so yeah I am feeling pretty tired myself. A good video to watch before bed
Very well put together video 👍👍
I like you because I know I'm getting Padres content
Imagine if your MLB debut was 1:30am.
Is it ever explained why it started at 1 AM and not just cancelled
Never heard of Mitch Williams before this and idk how cuz that follow-through is wild 😂😂
Another strong argument to keep batting pitchers on the NL.
Great story. I wonder if MLB broadcast crew's ever do segments with creator content because if they don't they should start!

Wasn’t McGriff a Brave in 1993?
He got traded at the deadline

I have a request. Talk about this one instance where someone struck out without being at the plate.
I’m a simple man I see tony Gwynn I click
I think there is a typo. The Padres went 61-101 in 1993, not 67-101.
You'd be correct
I BE A SLEEPY BOI IF I PLAYED THAT GAME
Interesting vid
How do u finish 7th in the NL west?
There used to be only two divisions per league with 8 teams in each one
There was no central division for either league, so there were only the nl east and west. The Braves were in the NL west
7 teams actually. The Rockies and Marlins were new. The next season they realigned with 3 divisions. Sucks that the Padres were the only team to ever finish as low as 7th place in the west.
