We are told history repeats itself.
If only that were true for New York sports fans.
The Yankees-Red Sox rivalry was the rivalry in New York sports. None could top it.
Following the Red Sox’s 1918 World Series championship came the sale of Babe Ruth to the Yankees, which resulted in an 86-year long drought for Boston. It went on to largely fuel the rivalry for years until the curse was lifted with Boston’s title in 2004.
