Vintage World Series: Oakland Athletics (1972, 1973, 1974, 1989), courtesy A&E
Catfish Hunter's pitching led the way in 1972 against the Cincinnati Reds, when six of the seven games were decided by one run. The A's also saw a seven-game victory the next year as Reggie Jackson shined versus the New York Mets. The 1974 Fall Classic -- versus the Los Angeles Dodgers -- pitcher Ken Holtzman's timely home run sealed the A's third title in a row and place in baseball history. Fifteen years later, the A's met the San Francisco Giants in an earth-shattering Series -- literally. Game 3 was delayed 10 days by a powerful earthquake.
