The 1975 Boston Red Sox saw the emergence of future Hall of Famer Jim Rice and soon-to-be first ever Rookie of the Year and MVP in the same season Fred Lynn. “The Gold Dust Twins” helped lead Boston to the American League pennant, which included a three-game sweep of the three-time defending World Champion Oakland A’s in the ALCS. The only thing that doomed the 1975 Boston Red Sox was the Big Red Machine of the Cincinnati Reds, who needed seven games to defeat the Red Sox in what has been widely regarded as one of the greatest World Series of all time.
