For five years in the early 1900s, the Red Sox dominated baseball winning the World Series year after year.  But then, in 1919, they lost.  And they continued to lose.  Even though they came close some years, the Sox would not win the World Series for 86 years!  Some people thought that it was because they Red Sox had sold Babe Ruth to the Yankees in 1919.  The Curse of the Bambino was talked about among the fans.  Would there ever be an end to the curse?  Come along and enjoy the events of 2004!
SUBJECTS:     Boston Red Sox (Baseball team).
