Over the past decade, the New York Yankees’ historic rivalry with the Boston Red Sox has been as good as dead. In 2016, however, they both seem like contenders and could re-spark one of the greatest rivalries in sports.
When I say Yankees vs Red Sox, what comes to mind?
Maybe you think of 1919 when Boston infamously sold Babe Ruth to the Yankees, creating the “Curse of the Bambino,” and the start of a storied rivalry. Or maybe you think of Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams, or the “Boston Massacre,” followed by the Bucky Dent home run.
