And They Finished 17 Games Out
Many years ago, a Yankees team had four Hall of Famers. Their main rival that season was the Boston Red Sox, a team that had not four but FIVE Hall of Famers, but it was the Yankees who won the pennant and swept the Reds in the World Series while Boston finished a distant second, 17 games out of first place.

Bye Bye Curse - What will Bosox fans have to moan about now?

It Really Is Offensive
Great pitching and defense often create excruciating tension which can be released with almost no warning at any time. In a 1-0 game in the eighth inning, every pitch and every play is important. A two run home run by the team with the lead puts the game out of reach while a two run home run by the trailing team turns the game around.

The third baseman is a shortstop, the leftfielder is a second baseman, the centerfielder is a left fielder, the first baseman is cheered because he lost some weight and alleges he will now be a good boy, and the starting pitchers are old and ineffective.

But Are They Really the Best?
Pitching has always been the most important part of winning. Offense almost always decreases dramatically in the playoffs and World Series because the teams that get to the World Series get there on pitching and defense. Now, with two rounds of playoffs before the World Series, it has almost become a rarity for the team with best regular season to get to the World Series, much less win it.
