So the Red Sox made it into the MLB playoffs (Major League Baseball) for the first time since 2009
Boston has one of the highest payrolls in baseball. And haven't they won the World Series twice in the last decade? They're ranked like 5 in World Series appearances. Try being a Chicago baseball fan. The White Sox have won the World Series twice in the past 100 years and the Cubs haven't for over 100 years.
Anyways, the World Series is a dumb name for the championship.
It's kinda like the Miss Universe pageant, she's always from Earth.
