The Forgotten Game

The Boston Red Sox hadn’t won a World Series in 86 years. In 2004, they faced their nemesis, the New York Yankees, in the American League Championship Series. Down three games to none, the Sox staged a furious comeback and went on to win baseball’s championship. In The Forgotten Game, I tell the story of pivotal (and under appreciated) Game 5 of that series.

You can order:

“When my favorite band releases their greatest hits album I devour it. Years later after listening to it a million times, I enjoy the simple pleasure of hearing all the other songs and B sides. John Vampatella’s book is uncovering incredible songs that weren’t played on radio. If you’ve devoured everything Red Sox-Yankees, you’ll LOVE IT. If you are new to the rivalry and era, you will understand it for the first time. I couldn’t put it down and loved the historical context of each inning. I loved it.” —Gar Ryness (Batting Stance Guy)
