Think You Bleed Red and Blue?Then this is the book you've been waiting for. The Legendary Boston Red Sox Trivia Bible takes you on a journey through one of the most storied - and most cursed, and most redeemed - franchises in American sports, from a scrappy ballclub playing in the shadow of the Yankees to the 2004 team that finally broke eighty-six years of heartbreak and built a modern dynasty in its place. Eight chapters trace the full sweep of Red Sox history: the sale that built a rival's empire, Ted Williams's greatest hitting seasons, the Green Monster's rise from ad-covered eyesore to icon, the long curse, the 2004 comeback that broke it, and the championships that followed. Each chapter has four difficulty levels - Rookie, Minor League, All Star, and Legend - so whether you're just starting out or think you know everything, there's a section here that will test you. 160 questions in all, built to challenge you, surprise you, and make you smile.Think you know your Red Sox? Try these: - Which legendary Red Sox pitcher started his career as a dominant lefty ace before a broken thumb changed everything - and before he ever put on pinstripes?- What year was the Green Monster actually painted its iconic green, and what did it look like before that?- How many intentional at-bats away was Boston from ending its championship drought in 2004 - and who delivered the swing that finally did it?- Which Red Sox legend kept a legal residence in Florida for his entire career just to avoid Massachusetts income tax - and never looked back? And that's just the warm-up! The ninth and final chapter is pure fun, with anagrams, a word search, and twenty extraordinary stories and facts that remind you why no team in baseball has a story quite like this one.For anyone who has ever loved this team - this one's for you.
