By Rich Westcott For The Inquirer The euphoria from the Phillies' 2008 World Series victory has yet to subside, but as spring training begins, the speculation already has started. Can the Phillies do it again? Can the team that was one of the best in Philadelphia baseball history and one that captured the hearts of the region win a second consecutive World Series championship? Will there be another parade down Broad Street? While posing that question, which the Phillies and most of their fans hope will be answered in the affirmative, let's look at what the team did in the years after its previous trips to the World Series. The Phils appeared in the Fall Classic in 1915, 1950, 1980, ERIC MENCHER / Staff Photographer 1983 and 1993. Phillies catcher Darren Daulton (right) and reliever Mitch Williams during the 1993 World Despite high expectations, there were no repeats. In the Series against Toronto. last half-century, only one of Philadelphia's major sports teams, the 1974-75 Flyers, won two championships in a row. And in baseball, no team has won two straight since 1 of 3 View images the 1998-2000 New York Yankees.

DEDICATION During Sigma Pi Fraternity’s first 90 years of existence, our Manual had been dedicated to “the pledge.” In 1987, the Manual was rededicated to our first Executive Director, Harold Jacobsen — the main author of the first Sigma Pi Manual. As Sigma Pi progresses through its second century, we look forward to our new members and back to our alumni. This manual is dedicated to the over 110,000 members who have preceded us into Sigma Pi — our alumni. Without their support, dedication, and values, Sigma Pi would not be what it is today.
