Delaware Torches Detroit refers to the Klein/Season 2 League Championship Series, widely considered one of the most dramatic League Championship Series in the entire history of Golly. In the first 3 games of the best-of-7 series, the DECO.png Delaware Corporate Shells were completely dominated by the DET.png Detroit Grape Chews , who completely shut out the Shells in the first game, and won by margins of victory of 90% or more in each game. The Chews were looking to finally break their curse, clinch a pennant, and show their faces in a Cup game after over a hundred seasons of failure.

In Game 4 (KleinCup.png d9d6a129-1d9c-4ae5-8913-73fb77141107), the Shells managed to knock the Chews back on their heels, achieving a Triple Double in their first victory. The Shells took another victory and another Triple Double in Game 5 (KleinCup.png c8a93a92-7ad0-4f45-b29d-9341ea2f1ece). In Game 6 (KleinCup.png c8c9c4e5-00af-410d-9483-ba6b15876a22), the Shells and Chews battled back and forth for 11,453 generations, with the Shells finally wrestling the Chews into submission with a third Triple Double in as many games.

The Shells overpowered the Chews in the final game of the series, sealing the greatest Championship Series comeback in Golly history, clinching the Hot League pennant, and sending the Shells to the Klein Cup, where they beat the SS.png Seattle Sneakers in 5 games.

Many Choke Artist scholars consider this Championship series to be the single greatest choke of all time.
