That 83 team still may be the best Sox team in my lifetime. We could have been a little stronger at 3B and SS.
After the All-Star break they could not be beat until they faced the O's in the ALCS.

Those are great!

I get an error when I try to access the links. Are they no longer active?

I was there. I don't remember a whole lot as I was only ten.

I remember after the Sox lost game 4, my dad pulled out the tickets to game 5 he was going to surprise me with. :whiner:
