I remember the 1967 series well, even though I am a Yankee
fan. I've met Jim Lonborg, and boy he pitched almost as well
as Bob Gibson in that Series. It could have gone either way.
There is a great book on the 1967 Red Sox....The Impossible
Dream. If you don't have it, it behooves to acquire it, you
will love reading it.
As a Yankee fan, I had mixed feelings on who I wanted to win.
Your team had acquired Elston Howard and the Cardinals had
Roger Maris. That was tough to take for a Yankee fan.
Anyhow, 37 years later the Red Sox were vindicated.
And, exactly 100 years after the McGraw "hex" of 1904 your
Red Sox won it.
