Bo Sox Power

As a Yankee fan for over 40 years I have seen many Yankee comebacks. 1978 was a great year. After being down 14 gamesrepparttar Bronx Bombers stormed back to overtakerepparttar 132963 Red Sox inrepparttar 132964 one game playoff. Bucky Dent sure had his baseball fantasy.

The 1958 Yanks. The team of Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra were down three games to one. They beatrepparttar 132965 Milwaukee Braves to redeem themselves forrepparttar 132966 previous year’s World Series loss. The Braves happened to berepparttar 132967 target for another Yankee comeback in 1996 whenrepparttar 132968 New Yorkers stormed back from a 2-0 ( both losses at Yankee Stadium) deficit in games to win four in a row.

Other teams have turnedrepparttar 132969 series around after being down three games to one. The 1968 Tigers did it againstrepparttar 132970 St Louis Cardinals, in spite of Bob Gibson incredible performances. Andrepparttar 132971 1968 Pirates overturnedrepparttar 132972 Orioles with “Their Family” of stars.

I thinkrepparttar 132973 Red Sox team of 2004 takes first prize. In all of sports including baseball, basketball and hockey there have been over 230 times sincerepparttar 132974 playoffs started where one team was ahead ofrepparttar 132975 other team three games to zero. Only twice hasrepparttar 132976 team that was onrepparttar 132977 short end ofrepparttar 132978 three to nothing deficit come back and won four in a row. Both times it was in hockey.
