"Revolting," "embarrassing," "humiliating," "goofy," and "nightmare," were only some of the words uttered by the broadcasters of the Red Sox third game loss to the New York Yankees in the ALCS by a score of 19-8. From the first inning on, this night belonged to the Yankees. And now I’m beginning to believe, Babe Ruth.
The Bambino’s Curse. A silly myth? A ridiculous superstition? I’m not so sure anymore. Even if the Sox had scored 10 more runs, they still would have lost, but by a far more respectable score of 19-18. Is this a sign?
Sixty-one times in Major League Baseballs long history a team has lost the first three games of seven game playoff series. No team has ever come back from that deficit.
