The Early Days: The Curse Before the Curse (Yes, Really)
The Red Sox were actually there at the very beginning of the World Series, snagging the first championship ever in 1903. They followed that up with a string of wins in the early 1900s, establishing themselves as a powerhouse. But then...well, let's just say things got a little complicated (ahem, the Curse of the Bambino).Breaking the Curse: Sweet, Sweet Redemption
Fast forward to the late 20th century, and the Red Sox were the poster children for lovable losers. But then, in a move that defied logic and years of heartbreak, they broke the Curse in 2004. Cue the city-wide meltdown (of joy, this time) and the start of a new era of Red Sox dominance.Modern Day: Because Apparently They Like Winning Now
Since the Curse-breaking win, the Red Sox have added three more World Series titles to their collection, proving they're not afraid to add some hardware to their trophy case.
So there you have it, folks. Nine World Series championships for the Boston Red Sox. Not too shabby, eh?
