My great grandfather was Sam Jones prolific right hand pitcher. The Red sox finally presented the 1918 world series award to us in 1993. It sits in my living room to this day
74 years to get their pins was absurd. Harry hooper fought for it till his death
Cool
@@scottaznavourian7617 cool
that is such a warm and loving story that i find tears streaming down my face. god bless
@@allend2749 chill
They need to make a movie on this series. Both huge fan bases would attend the theaters. People wondered why their teams never won forever - "The Curse of the 1918 World Series"
This Red Sox team is history in the making.
This was very cool. I did not know most of the events surrounding the 1918 World Series.
2018 World Series champs!
Yes I’m 100% convinced the series was fixed. In the testimonies of the 1919 players that had been recently discovered, left Williams said that “we wanted to fix it like the guys did
Last year.”
Back in that time games were fixed all the time. I would imagine baseball was a little more like big time wrestling than a sport. In fact players caught fixing games were traded. The Cubs wanted to get rid of Max Flax so bad they traded him during the intermission of a double header to the other team.
More both teams did not care that much is more like it. It was not hard to track down payments to fix the 1919 WS. Nothing like that has been proven about 1918.
Nothing proven but lefty Williams statement in his deposition is pretty damming. If this interests you read the original curse, the make a pretty strong cas.@@StanSwan
@@michaelgerhardt7130 I see no case at all. Just claims decades after the fact. It is typical for the Boston media to trash anything Red Sox if you knew their history. Ask David Ortiz about that one.
Absolutely amazing 👏 ⚾️
From the UK. Thanx was really gr8 to watch
The 1918 series didnt almost kill baseball. The 1919 one did
very cool great video!!
A baseball game during spanish flu. Thats insane
Very interesting and informative.
Now we can chant 2009
14:39 he was scuffling cause he hurt his pitching hand goofing around on the train back to boston
8:26 since he won 2 games in the world series hard to think barrow was wrong. On the flip side ruth also hadca 2 run triple im thatvworld series
Ironically the decreased crowds should be hailed as inadverdent social distancing during the Spanish flu pandemic
posibilidades de ver este video con subtitulos en español
Great video. And I am not a Sox fan.
best pitcher ever
Maybe the Curse of the Bambino was actually the result of playing three World Series games in Fenway Park in the middle of the 1918 Spanish flu epidemic.
People used to chant “1940” at the NY Rangers games.
Psssh. Hockey.
For hockey pucks. 😆
'harry frazee went on a spending spree' lol ironic
Then after breaking the curse in 2004 another dynasty for the sox was born 86 years later
That's all over.
Hasta la vista.
1:30 covid19 has done what WORLD WAR FUCKING 1 COULD NOT.
How many of these People thought that this would be last 1 for 86 years
fenway
Ohthani is the new Ruth.
Um, no.
Yeah I'd rather watch baseball then go to a play...then in 2020 you couldn't do either
They needed to do more interviews with the players who participated in the 1918 World Series. I'm sure there have to be at least 10 or 12 of them still alive in some nursing home.
Doubt it most these dudes were born late 1890s pretty sure last person born in 1899 died a few years ago .
Tldr : they would be in there 120s , they dead.
Lol the last guy from that team died in 1986
You’re crazy lol
See "Glory of their Times" - Lawrence Ritter. Harry Hooper is in it.
Think of what today would be like if we still implimented the work or fight program.
Or just a 'work or don't get jackshit' program.
Frazee won a workd series with the redosx. Something yawkey ownership didnt do in almost 70 years
I don't get it, he could still hit when he pitched so why did he really not want to pitch?
Barrow was using him in the OF between pitching days. That's hard.
2104?
The fan base is too passionate now. It wasn't back in the 1920s and 30s.
@@adamsoboleski6857
The fan base doesn't do jack.
Sox like to win WS in groups of 4. Just hope it’s not another 86 years before they win another. 😆
LOL
Actually...if they repeat the 5 in 16 seasons thing....they go back to back next year
@@scottaznavourian7617 I'll take 5 in 18 instead
I met someone from Alabama who was a Red Sox fan. I asked him why? His response, "They have the weirdest history in all of sports, winning five in the early 1900s, then not winning in 86 years but coming so close so many time, and now winning four since 2004."
Neverheaed ofaomething soridiculous as giving 6 teqmsthat didnt make the world seriws world series shares
I mean u can say flack was fixing the series cause he had a bad series...but Joe Jackson obviously took money the next year and hit like 450 in the series...
Joe Jackson wasn’t involved in the fix whatsoever. He was threatened to play worse but he wouldn’t .
Still don't get the 95 years at Fenway crap. Seemed like an absurd excuse to try to bring more curse crap that never existed and a drought that ended in st Louis.
The Bruins only won 1 Real Stanley Cup (2011)
So let's totally disregard history. Not happening.
1919 WS was pretty joyless when it was revealed to be a fraud.
in danish that means stupid!
Danish means pastry.
Go Yankees
To hell
@@RyderTheGayRaptorUwU
Heh heh heh heh.
Blow me, loser.
There are still people who say the 1918 Series was fixed.
