<P>Here is a small timeline I’ve created about the Red Sox over the years.<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">1901</FONT> - Cy Young, a right handed pitcher, spent almost 20 years in the major leagues. He was the only pitcher in baseball’s first 100 years to win 500 games, including three no-hit shutouts and a perfect game. Today, there is a yearly award given out named the “Cy Young Award.”<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">1908</FONT> - Fenway Park, built on its own land in the Fenway section of Boston, moved the Red Sox from the Huntington Avenue Grounds. The Stadium is still used to this date<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">1914</FONT> - Babe Ruth was acquired by Boston<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">1918</FONT> - The Sox won the World Series, for the last time in 86 years<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">1933</FONT> - Tom Yawkey took over the Boston franchise<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">1939</FONT> - Ted Williams, considered by many the greatest hitter to ever play, was acquired by the Red Sox<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">1941</FONT> - Ted Williams went .406 in his third year<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">1942</FONT> - Johnny Pesky started his career with the Red Sox, and he still sits in the dugout every game as part of the Red Sox staff<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">1960</FONT> - Carl Yastremski, a very well-known outfielder, was signed by the Red Sox<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">1978</FONT> - Bucky Dent hit a three-run homer in the 1978 A.L.C.S., tearing any faithful Boston fan’s heart to pieces<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">1983</FONT> - Carl Yastrzemski’s Last Game, known as Yaz Day<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">1997</FONT> - The Red Sox made a risky move in signing Nomar Garciaparra, who turned into a superstar right away. The shortstop won the Rookie of the Year award by hitting .306 with 122 homers, 209 hits, 44 doubles, 11 triples, 30 homers, 98 RBIs, and 22 stolen bases<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">2001</FONT> - The Red Sox signed the slugger that still plays for the sox today, Manny Ramirez.<BR>
<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#EE0000">2004</FONT> - A season that will surely live on in any Red Sox fan’s heart forever. The season when the swept the first series in the playoffs, against the Angels. Then in the next series, the sox fell behind 3 games to none, a ditch that they could seamingly not climb out of, until they won the next game. There was sill hope, and the next game was theirs too! They won the three after that, and were crowned A.L.C.S champions! Never before had a team came back from 3 games to none! In the world series, the sox swept the Cardinals! The Red Sox won the World Series for the first time in 86 years!<BR>
<BR>
The Red Sox radio broadcaster, Joe Castiglione, announced<BR>
<I>“Foulke to the set, the 1-0 pitch, here it is, swing and a ground ball stabbed by<BR>
Foulke, he has it, he underhands to first, and the Boston Red Sox are the world <BR>
champions, for the first time in 86 years, the Red Sox have won baseball’s world<BR>
championship, can you believe it?”<BR>
<BR>
</I>No, Joe, after four years, I still can’t.</P>
