Red Sox Title Reverses Recent Sunday Boston Teams Sunday Elimination Losses
Last Sunday, on the exact eleventh anniversary of their 2007 title (Sundays October 28th), the Boston Red Sox won their ninth World Series title.
This Sunday title was in sharp contrast to Boston teams being eliminated on Sundays, earlier in 2018.
My post on the losses is below.
- Boston Sunday Season Ending Losses, Notes on June 23, 2018
Nine of the eleven (those numbers!) Boston titles since 2001 or even the events of 9-11-2001 (the last Boston title before that was the Celtics’ 1986 crown) were won by the Patriots (5) and the Red Sox (4). The Celts and Bruins have one each.
Nine of the eleven (the Celtics in ’08 and the Red Sox in ’13 are the exceptions), need I say “those numbers”–were won away from Boston i.e. the road, though the Pats’ titles were at neutral Super Bowl sites.
