Story Highlights

The 2022 National League Championship Series had everything that you'd possibly want in a playoff matchup: the young San Diego Padres, looking to appear in their first World Series in nearly two and a half decades, going up against the Philadelphia Phillies, who were trying to turn a final Wild Card spot into a shot at winning the Fall Classic. After a go-ahead, two-run homer by NLCS MVP Bryce Harper in the eighth inning of Game 5, this series became one for the history books and helped Fox Sports bring home the 2023 Sports Emmy for Outstanding Playoff Coverage.

At the ceremony, Producer Pete Macheska highlights the meaning of this win and his colleagues at the front bench that made this a special production.
