Boston Red Sox were
founded in 1893 as a part of the
Toledo,
OH franchise in the Western League.
In 1900, the
team
moved to Boston when the Western
League converted into the American
League. In 1901 they were known
as the
Boston Americans, in 1902 the Boston
Somersets and in 1903 to 1906 the
Boston Pilgrims. In 1903, while
known as
the Boston Pilgrims, they win their
first World Series. Although the Red
Sox would endure numerous
owner
changes in the following ten years,
they would still go on to win four
World Series titles in six of those
ten.
Their
winning streak came to an end when
Red Sox owner Harry Frazee sold Babe
Ruth to their rival team the New York
Yankees. With the loss of Babe Ruth
came the decrease of
Boston Red Sox tickets. Many Sox
fans followed
their favored
“Bambino”.
Known as the
Baltimore Orioles from 1901 to 1902
and the New York Highlanders from
1903 to 1910, the New York
Yankees
welcome Babe Ruth to the team. After
the purchase of Babe Ruth from the
Red Sox in January of 1920, The
New
York Yankees go on as the superior
dynasty in baseballs history.
Ruth’s first year as a Yankee was a
season to
remember. He hit 54 home
runs breaking his 1919 record of 29.
Coming up short just three games,
with
New York Yankees
tickets on
a rise, Yankees proceed to win
ninety-five games. After releasing
the “Bambino” to the Boston Braves
in 1934,
the New York Yankees
proceed unimpeded and win the 1938
World Series against the Chicago
Clubs.
In the early 1900’s,
the Chicago Cubs descended into
prolonged doldrums. By 1918 things
began to turn around when
William
Wrigley incurred the bulk of the
ownership of the Cubs. The Chicago
Clubs would than go on to win a
pennant
every three years. However,
the Cubs do experience a dry spell
in not winning a World Series since
1945. In return, fans
are still
purchasing
Chicago Cubs tickets,
believing a World Series win is
abundantly overdue.
