As a lifelong baseball fan I have enjoyed this championship like few others. My congratulations to Bosox nationals. The whole team raised to a mystical dynamic where you knew, that in a parallel universe, the Red Sox had already won the whole deal after forcing the Yanks into collapse last week. Cleef et al, You now have a modern-era winning team and can claim legitimacy against the other world champs on the AL East, the *&*%#! Yankees, the Blue Jays and the Baltimore Orioles (sorry, Tampa Bay). That a contingent of stellar Dominican players in Red Sox uniforms contributed in amazing ways to this victory is just icing on the cake for us Dominican baseball partisans (sorry Pujols). Its great that our boys (Manny, Papi and Pedro) were part of restoring glory to a dignified, but chronically futile club. This October was one of the great moments in the sport. That Theo Epstein kid is probably gonna have an endowed academic chair named after him at MIT... in Alchemy (the elusive winning formula) or Astrology (lunar eclipse and all...), or have statue next to Paul Revere's....LOL.

*the O's are just a couple of quality pitchers away from contending against the "big boys" up north; watch out in a couple of seasons.....
