There was no debating the better team all year, and there was no debating the better team in this series.
The 108-win Red Sox entered the postseason with more questions than the SATs while the Wild Card Yankees looked like a team nobody wanted to face this October.
And yet it was the Sox who looked like juggernauts by the time the American League Division Series was over at Yankee Stadium late Tuesday night.
Rick Porcello earned his first win in a playoff start, Christian Vazquez hit his first home run since June 26 and Chris Sale pitched out of relief in a bizarro Game 4 win, 4-3, that secured the Red Sox first playoff series win since 2013.

Don't even get me started on what it's like to wear Red Sox gear to a game at Yankee Stadium in da Bronx! It's the Belly of the Beast... There were a few Red Sox fans wearing Red Sox gear at the Stadium tonight. They had absolutely not trouble.

I haven’t been keeping up but being in MA I am quite happy. Living here is pretty brutal with the energy costs, politics and the cost of living. But nothing beats the sports teams.

Yaaay, Sox!
Good luck against Houston!

The Astros are a tough team, but the Sox can take ‘em if they maintain their concentration and don’t make mistakes.
Go, Red Sox!

Correction : even New York could not handle.
