The 1995 World Series provided the only world championship of the 1990s to the decade's most dominant National League team - the Atlanta Braves. After heartbreaking defeats to the Minnesota Twins and Toronto Blue Jays, the Braves were trying for the third time in five years to capture a title. The Series presented an entertaining matchup between the best pitching staff (Atlanta) and the best lineup (Cleveland). It is also sometimes facetiously referred to as the "Politically Incorrect World Series", due to both teams' controversial use of stereotypical Native American nicknames and logos.
