The Boston Red Sox are one of the most interesting franchises in baseball.
As Red Sox fans, we've experienced some spectacular victories, but mostly
heartbreaking defeats. We've had some spectacular players with dynamic
personalities, and we've had some dreadful players who the fans have run
out of town.
Choose a year. You know they didn't win it any of these years. But some
years they came closer than others.
