More DescriptionThere have been thousands of minor league baseball teams since the start of the 20th century. Which one was the best ever, well, that always has been open to debate. There is one team that needs to be included in any argument.That team would be the 1993 Harrisburg Senators, a collection of top prospects the talent-rich Montreal Expos put together in one place at one time to see what would happen.Would they dominate the Eastern League, a Class AA league annually filled with some of baseball's best prospects? Or would they collapse under the weight of their egos and others' expectations? No one truly knew coming out of spring training that season. The game's history, regardless of level, has been loaded with dream teams that inexplicably turned into nightmares before season's end.The 1993 Harrisburg Senators were such a dream team, a team that trashed an entire league on its way to a championship.The Class of '93 is their story, of how a bunch of alpha males checked their egos at the clubhouse door and turned their own expectations into reality.
