The year was 1988. The dodgers win the world series. Also that year the Irish won their last NC. Could we see that happening again in 2017/18 ? kismet ?

ND has done much better when Dodgers lose the series though. Three NC and a near miss in 53. Plus 2-8 in 1956

I was just pointing out that the last time both teams made the big game (games for dodgers) at the same time was in 88, and they both won. Just a fun observation.

I believe that the Kirk Gibson "I can't believe what I just saw" home run was on the same day of the Catholic v Convicts game.

I remember getting back to the hotel in Elkhart after the game and watching that World Series game that night.
