USA Today ranks Red Sox as the No. 1 franchise in baseball
Seth Livingstone of USA Today writes that the Boston Red Sox combine resilience in the field and a vision for excellence in the front office, have brought unbridled joy to the ever-growing population of Red Sox Nation in the past five seasons.
In 2004, there was literally dancing in the streets of Boston when the franchise stunned the New York Yankees by rallying from a 3-0 deficit in the American League Championship Series on the way to its first World Series title in 86 years. Three years later, a second generation of champions, led by high-stepping closer Jonathan Papelbon, danced in celebration on the Fenway green.
This year, after the Red Sox disposed of the Los Angeles Angels in the AL Division Series and the crowd had gone home, team owners John Henry and Tom Werner took a celebratory run around the basepaths.
The Red Sox have become winners on the field and in the community, and they’ve had a measure of fun doing it.
And when USA TODAY Sports Weekly ranked the performance of 30 Major League Baseball franchises in nine categories during the past five years, the Red Sox, who reached Game 7 of the ALCS this year, came out No. 1 overall.
