Wednesday, October 20, 1993 at Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Team 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E Toronto 3 0 4 0 0 2 0 6 0 15 18 0 Philadelphia 4 2 0 1 5 1 1 0 0 14 14 0

WP: Tony Castillo (1-0) LP: Mitch Williams (0-1) SV: Duane Ward (2)
HRs: PHI - Lenny Dykstra 2 (3), Darren Daulton (1)

In the fourth game of the Series, Toronto sent Todd Stottlemyre to the mound while Philadelphia countered with Tommy Greene. It had been a rainy day in Philadelphia, which water-logged the aging turf at Veteran's Stadium, making for particularly slippery conditions. This, and the off-and-on drizzle that continued throughout the game, greatly contributed to the sloppy play.

In one of the more unusual plays in World Series history, Stottlemyre, trying to go first to third on a Roberto Alomar single in the second inning, did a bellyflop diving into third base, where he was called out. Todd's awkward dive resulted in an abrasion on his chin and appeared to shake him up in the next inning, during which he surrendered a two-run home run to Lenny Dykstra. Stottlemyre was pulled after the second inning, having already given up six runs. Tommy Greene fared little better for the Phillies, being pulled after giving up seven runs in three innings.

Philadelphia took a commanding 12-7 lead in the fifth inning, courtesy of two-run home runs from Dykstra and Darren Daulton, and a run-scoring double from Milt Thompson.

Toronto fought back from a 14-9 deficit in the eighth inning, scoring four runs on hits from Paul Molitor, Tony Fernández, Rickey Henderson, and Devon White. Duane Ward pitched the final two innings to earn the save. Three new World Series records were set, including the longest game (4:14), most total runs scored in a single game (29), and most runs scored by a losing team (14).

Two death threats directed towards Mitch Williams were phoned into Veterans Stadium as soon as it became evident that Williams was going to be the losing pitcher of Game 4. Williams wasn't aware of the death threats until after Game 5.

Also, Charlie Williams became the first African American to serve as the home plate umpire for a World Series game.
