Sox Going Streaking!
Marissa: [after seeing Frank running naked along the streets, she slows down her car] Frank, what are you doing?
Frank: [out of breath] We're... We're going streaking!
Marissa: Who is?
Frank: Th... W... There's more coming.
Marissa: Get in the car.
Frank: But...
Marissa: Frank! Now!
Frank: [still out of breath] Ok.
11 in a row. Last year the most wins in a row for the Sox was 7. This year people were flipping out after only 8 games, now the Sox are surging. The best part of all of this is that the Sox aren't even playing their best baseball. Big Papi hasn't done a damn thing, Beckett has been inconsistent, Dice-K is out, Smoltz isn't even on the team yet, Papelbon hasn't looked like himself, ect. I mean think about it, kind of crazy. Anyways, here is where this streak stands in terms of all time great Sox winning streaks...
1946 - 15
1948 - 13
1939 - 12
1988 - 12
1995 - 12
2006 - 12
2009 - 11
In 1988 the Sox won 19 of 20, which is probably the most impressive. To break the record the Sox would have to win the next two games @ Cleveland, then win the first 3 games @ Tampa Bay...very tough, but who knows...remember they haven't even played their best baseball yet!!
