FORT MYERS, Fla. — Steve Pearce and Mitch Moreland could not be faulted if they wanted to savor their feats of last fall just a little longer.
After all, both Red Sox first basemen delivered specific, special moments in the Red Sox’ five-game World Series victory over the Dodgers that will not soon, if ever, be forgotten.
Most Red Sox fans probably don’t require a reminder, though one is always welcome, right?
Moreland’s three-run homer in the seventh inning of Game 4 may have been the pivotal plot-twist in the Series given that the Red Sox trailed, 4-0, at the time, with the Dodgers threatening to tie it at 2 games apiece.
