For the 86th time in the last 87 years, the Boston Red Sox season has ended in disapointment, as the Bosox fell to Chicago at Fenway last night, putting a repeat of last year's historic championship out of reach. It may be the last game in a Boston uniform for both Manny Ramirez and Johnny Damon, so Theo Epstein will once again have his work cut out for him this winter.
It's a good year for the large contingent of baseball fans who are sick to death of all-Yankees-Sox-all-the-time, and will be even better if the Angels can close out the Bombers in the Bronx this afternoon.
