Synopsis

In his eight years with the Boston Red Sox, Babe Ruth led the team to four World Series wins. Ruth's sale to the Yankees in 1919 began one of the longest droughts in American sports history. For 86 years, the Red Sox failed to win another World Series.
In 2004, all that changed as a group of self-proclaimed idiots stormed their way through the playoffs, overcame the "Curse of the Bambino," and won the World Series. They banished the curse in rare style, first defeating the Anaheim Angels 3-0 to win the division, then overcoming a 3-0 deficit to beat the infamous New York Yankees, and finally sweeping the St. Louis Cardinals 4-0.
In this book, MLB.com Red Sox beat writer Ian Browne tells the story behind that amazing season. Extensive interviews with players and others bring to life the season that Red Sox Nation had always hoped for, and gives a rare glimpse into the lives of the men who changed Red Sox history forever.
