Answer 1

c.
1949. Sox up by one game with two to go in NY. Yankees go to World Series.

1978. Sox up by 14 games at All Star break. Yankees catch them on last day of season. Bucky F. Dent hits homer to win one game playoff.

1999. Yankees blow Red Sox out of ALCS despite very effective work by Pedro Martinez.

2000. Yankees falter at end of season. Red Sox 3 1/2 out with 3 to go and with Yankees having a possible make up game with Florida if necessary. Baltimore has to sweep the Yankees and the Red Sox have to sweep Tampa Bay. Baltimore does its part, but Red Sox take two out of three from D'Rays. Yankees win division, pennant and Series.

2003. Yankees win hard fought, including a brawl in which Pedro decks 70 year old bench coach Zimmer, ALCS on extra innings walk off by Aaron F. Boone.

2004. July 24th Saturday afternoon Fox game punctuated with a brawl between Jason Varitek and A-Rod. Red Sox turn season around and take the wild card.

2004. Yankees up 3 games to none, leading by a run in the 9th with future hall of fame closer Mariano Rivera on the mound. A leadoff walk to Kevin Millar who is replaced by Dave Roberts sets up a stolen base and a contact single to center by Bill Mueller ties the game, two innings later Big Papi David Ortiz hits a walk off home run, one of two walk off hits in the ALCS for him. Red Sox are the only baseball team to win a series after being down 3 games to none.

2005. Yankees and Red Sox are tied going into the final weekend series. Red Sox settle for wild card.

2006. Red Sox lead eliminated in an awful 8-22 August by the Yankees sweeping a 5 games series at Fenway.

Answer 2

dodgers vs giants

we just don't like barry bonds

enough said

well to answer your question properly..


DODGERS v GIANTS, has been going on longer than Yankees vs Redsox, it all started back in 1883 when Giants were in New York and Dodgers were in Brooklyn, established at the same time same DAY. first game was against each Other. There has been over ten bench clearing brawls since then.
They dont have too many heart breaking trades like; the babe trade but, they do have many important pennant races that ended with major heart ache.

-In 1958, both teams moved to the west coast making room for the Mets. The rivalry is just as or better than the Yankee vs Redsox rivalry. Last year I went to a game with nose bleed section seats and there must have been several fights way up top involving a crazy mexican dodger fan attacking a caucasion Giant fan.

Personally I think its a better rivalry because they're so close in Division titles and World Series wins, Dodgers wiith 6, Giants with 5. Go Dodgers

Answer 3

I don't know why people have to even think about this one, Red Sox Vs. Yankees is the biggest rivalry in sports history!! If someone has never watched baseball before they know about the Red Sox and the Yankees

Answer 4

B. Dodger Vs Giants- In a rivalry two teams have to win. not get dominated over half a century. Has any other pitcher taken a bat to a catchers head. cubs vs Cardinals is not even a rivalry its a joke. what was the last time they had a big moment.

Answer 5

Sorry dodgers giants fans the key word here is GREATEST not longest,nobody but dodger giant fans care about that rivalry ,the world is wrapped when the red sox Yankees play,it's broadcast throughout the world and has fans from both teams covering the globe.

Answer 6

C. Red Sox vs Yankees

They fact their in the same division & always competeing for number one is why I chose BOS VS NY. They both have pretty big fan bases and both have multilple world series wins. You go sports forums & even here you can find the people that don't like the other team. It's great!

Answer 7

Yankees vs. red sox, without a doubt. i choose this one 'cause it's been going on for such a long time and that the two of them are always fighting to clinch the division. it goes way back to when the red sox sold Babe Ruth to the yankees, and then after that year, they didn't win a world series for 86 years. pretty sad.

Answer 8

Red Sox and Yankees

Answer 9

the Yankees-Red Sox is a great rivalry between 2 great teams but i'm getting a little tired of hearing about them. i say Mets- Yanks

Answer 10

Of course the Red Sox vs. Yankees!!

Due to their longevity and of course the Ruth factor!!
