NYC’s Championship Drought Getting Bigger By The Day

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Will New York City ever have a championship parade again?

Sports fans have to be at least a little concerned now that the five boroughs’ best hope this year, the Yankees, have been eliminated.

“I don’t see any championships coming this year, that’s for sure, in any of the sports,” one fan told CBS2’s Otis Livingston on Wednesday, just hours after the Red Sox clinched the AL Division Series with a 4-3 victory in the Bronx.

Not three weeks after celebrating the AL East title at Yankee Stadium, the Red Sox ended their longtime rivals’ season late Tuesday night.
