OK, so all those late nights watching baseball have paid off this year for Red Sox Nation. Just getting to the playoffs was great, as it has been all year as the Team picked up game clenching victories in the late innings as though the baseball gods had deemed them and given them the edge to victory. Last night the win seemed inevitable as the game started and the timely hits kept coming as they were suppose to, to give the Red Sox a victory not just for baseball, but for a region that saw in them a spirit of resilience that reflected how we want to be. And that is to pick ourselves up after a loss, or tragedy, and to come back Boston Strong and to not give up. For that, the Red Sox have validated those pedestrian wants for the home town (region) to win and to represent in the small way a sports team does, that striving for victory and not giving up is a victory in itself and it is an example around which we can CHEER!
