Virtually my entire Boston Red Sox early years was a New York Yankee kind of world and now the Yankees are coming to town.
My first baseball experience was the Boston Braves who quickly left this eight-year-old having to move to Milwaukee if I wanted to see them play, so that means option number two – the Red Sox.
For most of the Red Sox fan base, they have no idea what baseball was like in the 1950s and into the mid-1960s. This was the Yankees at their very dominating best. From 1949-1953, the Yankees won five straight World Series.
