	World Series
		The "modern" World Series was established between the American League and its older rival, the National League, in 1903 as part of a plan to regularize competition between the leagues.
		The first inter-league championship series was held in 1884 between the Providence Grays of the National League and the New York Metropolitan Club of the American Association.
		The National League tried a championship series between the winners of the first half of the season against the winners of the second half, but it was not a hit with the fans and was dropped in 1893.

	FOX Sports - World Series - Coolest World Series teams ever
		The 2004 Boston Red Sox were one of the most unusual a teams to find playing for a world championship in a decade and immediately added to a rich legacy of "cool" World Series teams.
		When the 2004 version of the Red Sox finished the final chapter of their remarkable run with the team's first World Series championship in 86 years, it ended the most analyzed sports story in U.S. history (the sale of Babe Ruth and the subsequent "Curse").
		After the upstart American League representatives, the Boston Pilgrims (now the Red Sox), embarrassed the established National League by beating their champions, the Pittsburgh Pirates, in the very first World Series in 1903, New York Giants owner John T. Brush and charismatic Giants manager John McGraw refused to play Boston in the 1904 World Series.

	Puckin' Around vol.3-- 2004-05 NHL Season
		Many people, myself included, will argue until they’re blue in the face the 1994 World Series would have been won by the Montreal Expos, that is until the big strike wiped out the pennant races, league championships and fall classic.
		To understand the magnitude and importance of where the 2004 American League Championship Series will undoubtedly stand in sports history, you have to understand this is something which has only happened twice previously in all of pro sports, and the two times it did happen were both during the Stanley Cup playoffs.
		It’s taken almost 30 years to happen again, but now in 2004, the Boston Red Sox had lost the first three games of the ALCS against the New York Yankees (most convincingly I might add) and were literally six outs away from being swept in Game 4 when the miracle happened.

		Schilling had suffered an ankle injury during the American League Division Series and was thought to be OK, but he gave up six runs and lasted only three innings.
		As a surprising note, the two games are also joined in another way, as, along with the 1998 Braves against the San Diego Padres, the 1999 Mets and 2004 Red Sox are the only baseball teams to go down 0-3 in a Series and force a Game 6.
		Because of this incident several police forces including Seattle's have temporarily discontinued use of this weapon until after the results of the investigation are published.

		After taking a 3-0 lead against the Boston Red Sox in the 2004 American League Championship Series, the New York Yankees pulled off an Empire State Building-sized choke job.
		It's one thing to be the first team in baseball history to blow a 3-0 series lead when you have a lineup stacked with stars like Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez.
		With a 3-2 lead in the Series and a 3-0 lead at Wrigley Field in the eighth inning of Game 6, the Cubs were just five outs away from returning to their first World Series in nearly sixty years.

		Considering American professional sports history in general, Boston became the 153rd team to make a series sweep, and the 25th team to have never trailed in a best-of-seven series.
		In a somewhat fitting coincidence, their World Series victory came 18 years to the day (October 27) after their loss to the New York Mets in the 1986 World Series, and on the night of a lunar eclipse.

		Twice in a four-year period, the Red Sox lost to the Yankees in the League Championship Series, in 1999 and 2003.
		Even though their team had finished behind the Yankees in the American League East, they'd won the head-to-head season series, 11 games to 7.
		The series then moved to Boston, where Game 3 was rained out on Friday, meaning the final five games, if necessary, would be played over a five-day period with no day off.
