There was no debating the better team all year, and there was no debating the better team in this series.
The 108-win Red Sox entered the postseason with more questions than the SATs while the Wild Card Yankees looked like a team nobody wanted to face this October.
And yet it was the Sox who looked like juggernauts by the time the American League Division Series was over at Yankee Stadium late Tuesday night.
Rick Porcello earned his first win in a playoff start, Christian Vazquez hit his first home run since June 26 and Chris Sale pitched out of relief in a bizarro Game 4 win, 4-3, that secured the Red Sox’ first playoff series win since 2013.

Don’t care about BoSox but beating the Yankees is always good. No matter who does it.

Yep, the vulture almost got knocked off his perch. Good thing he finally decided to throw some fast balls so he could find the plate.

I thought that I’d have a stroke during the bottom of the ninth.

Years ago my son and family were in LA waiting to board a plane-——my Grandson,then about 7,had a Red Sox hat on and some teenager,a Yankee fan,actually started insulting him.
The family just relocated elsewhere because they also had a toddler with them and wanted to avoid a scene.
I could not believe it.
