If I’m not mistaken, this could be one of the longest winning streaks in the history of baseball. Clearly, the Boston Red Sox are having a season of historic proportions.

Ellsbury stole home. I have not seen that since Tommy Harper do that since 1973. The game was on TV. Harper stole 2nd, than 3rd, than home.

Everytime the Yankees win, a kitten dies. Thank you Red Sox for saving a kitten.

We were at Fenway on Sunday night and had rare (for us) seats just above home plate. I haven't heard a ROAR from the Fenway crowd like that in ages when Ellsbury made a break for home, and slid across home plate, much to the surprise of Petitte, Posada and the home plate umpire.

Every time Ellsbury came up to bat for the rest of the night, he got a standing ovation.

Another unforgettable moment at Sunday's game at Fenway: Captain Richard Phillips of the Maersk Alabama threw out the first pitch... to Jacoby Ellsbury!

This is what happens when you tear down the House that Ruth Built.

The “Curse of the Bambino” now belongs to the Yankees.

I’ll admit the steal of home may have rattled Petite but.. the batter hit a double to right field a few pitches later so Ellsbury could have walked home had he not stolen it.

Well it gets crazier. The Boston Red Sox have now won 11 games in a row. Our grandchildren are going to want to hear about these times so let’s savor the moment. Never before in the history of professional baseball has a team been so dominant as now.
