The Pain of 1986

I didn’t watch baseball that much when I was a kid, but when I started watching, I was a Red Sox fan. I don’t know why, since my dad liked the Braves.

It made it pretty exciting when the Red Sox played the Mets in the World Series in 1986. Neither my dad nor I liked the Mets at all, and here were the Sox with a chance to break the curse and win the World Series.

Of course, that meant we got to see the choke of the century in Game 6…

San Diego Serenade brings back the pain, but this time in non-threatening Nintendo style. Vin Scully’s commentary and RBI Baseball go great together. :)
