The 2004 ALCS was the first time I was invested myself in watching baseball in over a decade. I still don't know why but for some reason, I started watching game 4 in the 8th inning. I watched the rest of the Red Sox run. My grandma was 93 years old, from Middleboro, Massachusetts. She was 7 when the Red Sox last won the World series. She passed away 2 months later, I'm positive she waited for those boys to win the series before she crossed the rainbow bridge.

That’s fuckin awesome

[@BBOY_GAMMA34]

🥲

[@user-td1uv2nt3r]

My grandfather had a similar fate. Born in 1920 and never saw the Sox win. We watched the games together, and I never saw a bigger smile on him than when they won. He died November 2004. I've always said he was waiting for them to win it. RIP

[@SciTrekMan]

*RIP Tim Wakefield. You are already deeply missed.*

[@pallmall3930]

😢 Yup, was my favorite pitcher and person the entire time he was there and beyond and he will be DEEPLY missed by so many.

[@travisherdlicka7755]

About to cry! Love that dude! R.I.P.

[@barbadosbenjamite5484]

Orlando Cabrera was a huge pickup in this championship run

[@victorhernandez8723]

One of the greatest moments in sports history!

[@petercole8798]

Yes Vic and I sat in the right FIELD roof box seats in 1966. For 5.50. the only roof box seats in those days. Bleachers were 1.25.patriots games were 2.00 in the bleachers. Side lines in front of the monster were .3.75. go to Patriots history here on utube see the pats playing in Fenway park.

[@ericsmith6823]

amen this is gold

[@bama539]

The 2004 season was so magical that I still get goosebumps thinking about the series.

[@user-rq7nt3yn2x]

The Greatest Red Sox Team !!! I still remember my dear friend calling me after the win, he said " ... well what do we have to live for now?" Amazing, my mom born in 1918, and the biggest Sox fan of all never missed a game saw it as well as one more in 2007, that team was especially made for fans like her.

[@stephensupernor4481]

I've been a Red Sox fan for over 40 years and this is my all-time favorite team. Not because they won a championship. This is a team of grit. Although I live in Houston, Texas now, but I know what it's like to be a Bostonian!!

[@Franz_Donnermann]

2007, 2013, 2018... No... The 2004 championship ... The best ...always!!!

[@petercole8798]

Read my comment Franz. Like yours.

[@hal3745]

Those championships were great. But don’t hold a candle to the 2004 idiots. Not even close

[@markyncole]

They didn't show the big humiliation for the NY Yankees when Alex Rodriguez was called out for slapping the ball from Bronson Arroyo's glove.

[@user-td1uv2nt3r]

Arod likes to slap balls.

[@andrewdecker616]

As a New Englander I loved mullet Damon haha

[@bornyesterday1895]

Johnny Damon is going off! When he hit that 2nd HR in game 7, it was all over.

[@maineventkrunch2265]

Jesus Christ. Bronson hasn't aged a day.

[@ProudBrotherOfFxcusProdutions]

RIP Tim Wakefield Miss You...

This era 2001-21 Red Sox Champion 04, 07, 13 and 18 Those Yankess Only one 2009

[@jrcotton3483]

That was a goood series that year...

[@SciTrekMan]

The Red Sox Organization has now morphed back into the Haywood Sullivan/Lou Gorman era. *John Henry: Do you remember that you own the Red Sox???*

[@brmillgr]

Legends

[@bobbob465]

I like to think The Curse broke on the Midnight stroke just before The Steal, and from that point on there was nothing holding them back anymore, allowing the 8 straight wins, as if this was what they were capable of without Ruth standing on their throats. It's too Goddamned perfect of a story.

[@lordemed1]

I still haven't recovered from the ALCS...🥴

[@thebostonsportsreport9584]

Let's go Red Sox Nation

[@luishumbertovega3900]

"...and he can keep on running to New York !!!" Joe Buck nailed that !!!

[@Diphenhydra]

Can’t wait to see the team reflect back on the win in 2090, 86 years after the broke the 86 year curse.

[@Rock-Bottem1982]

You cant wait? I wouldnt hold your breath as you probably wont be alive in 2090

[@petercole8798]

There's a song on utube called midnight and the Stars and you.used in the movie the shining with jack Nicholson in 1980.go to Mr sandman's version here on utube it's the best sounding version I think. And start out in 1917 with flim of the babe and think how much the song blends in with the curse of the babe. the song just goes with it. From 1917 till 2004. With the Sox running out of the dugout and the bullpen.hope you folks think so. In fact in the 1997 Titanic movie I can see the first class passengers dancing to it.

[@Shadowace724]

I wept with joy at the game 4 win for the pennant. I only wish my grandfather was alive to see them win it all..

[@michaelemery2201]

Why is the video pausing with a black screen, every 3 minutes??

[@lordemed1]

Commercial break

[@TheScrubExpress]

I'm not crying! You're crying!

[@sanjayiyer489]

How many times are we going to hear "Back to Foulke. Red Sox fans have longed to hear it: The Boston Red Sox are World Champions!" until we say "I HATE JOE BUCK!" I HATE JOE BUCK! I HATE JOE BUCK! I HATE JOE BUCK!

[@rmcfete]

What is up with the long black screens

[@ach31337]

Produced for TV and that's where the commercials went. No idea why they didn't shorten them though

[@thebostonsportsreport9584]

How about those Yankess 2021 ? Give ur opinion Red Sox fans

[@Rock-Bottem1982]

what does that even mean bud...Do you live in a World of "what ifs", "well", "how about now" type crap. History is history, but are you still sore, have you not moved on yet?

[@SciTrekMan]

*What about them this past season???????*

[@zeejoo]

Leave it to the most dogshit run big franchise to not edit out the 15 second ad gaps

[@lordemed1]

Bro, you desperately need a real life...and fast

[@Surfer041]

Rotten thieves. But the Giants paid you back by ruining the Pats perfect season.

[@jethrojacinto2798]

Keep crying, Storffy boy

[@Surfer041]

@@jethrojacinto2798 haven't been called that in like 20 years lol. This series should have been over in 5, and every Sox fans knows it. You were lucky Torre put it in your lap with his late game managing.

[@petercole8798]

Yes but the pats have 6 the Giants 4. Plus bill b has 2 with the Giants.

Somebody is soooo jealous of N.E sports. Oh how'd ya like Brady's win the other night ;)

[@fiesta061000]

The 2004 World Series was almost over before it even started..The Red Sox were on a real roll after winning four in a row and making sports history..The Cardinals also came back in their LCS..However, I think the NLCS took a lot out of the Cardinals..The ALCS didn't make the Red Sox tired..The ALCS comeback made the Red Sox better ⁉⚾💺🏟🤔
