Red Sox fans have enjoyed a remarkable rare occurrence in the 2016 season and that is the complete game. The Red Sox lead the American League in complete games with eight and Steven Wright has contributed four to that total.
On September 1, 1906, the Red Sox, or Boston Americans, played a game at the Huntington Avenue Grounds against the Philadelphia Athletics that Boston eventually lost 4-1 in 24 innings. The loss meant little in the giant scheme of a pennant race since the Americans were now 38-82 and firmly entrenched in last place.
