The Boston Red Sox have been a franchise since 1901, and it’s safe to say over time that they ‘ve made some blunders. What’s one that you’d change?
As card-carrying members of Red Sox Nation, we’ve been witness to some great and not so great moments in team history. There have been the highs of the countless division titles and especially the World Series trophies that have made their home at Fenway as of late. But there have also been the lows of coming so close to grabbing the brass ring just to slip on the banana peel.
We recently asked our staff to hop in their Wayback Machines to take a trip back through the 119-year history of the team and pick a moment they’d change if they had the power. As our team combed through the history books, watched countless hours of film, and racked up thousands of dollars in therapy bills, we were able to narrow it down to a few select choices.
The nice thing about loving a team that’s been around for so long is it gives you plenty of memories to choose from. Again, many of them may be awful, but many may be great. Luckily for us, the Red Sox have a laundry list of poor decisions that we could choose from.
Now that I have all of the boring stuff out of the way, let’s get miserable!
