The Red Sox won the World Series for the second time in my lifetime! Hurray!
The World Series was, once again, anticlimactic. The real nail-biting games were in the ALCS against Cleavland. But last night’s game was pretty good. Both teams were playing very well and I wouldn’t have been surprised if the score had remained 1-0. I suspect the 8 days off before the World Series caused the Rockies to lose all their momentum. They are an awesome team and should have been able to put up a better fight against the Red Sox. However, it’s also noteworthy that the last time the Red Sox swept the series it was with an 8-game winning streak, so they may have simply been unstoppable by any means in this series.
The bad news? No more baseball until Spring.
