BOSTON RED SOX HISTORY

Remembering the 1975 Red Sox AL Champs!

On Monday, July 14 from 1:00 pm-2:00 pm, join Herb Crehan for this informative talk. The 1975
season is among the most memorable in the rich history of the Boston Red Sox! Who can forget
Pudge Fisk’s famous 12th inning home run in Game 6 of the World Series?! And there has never
been a more amazing pair of rookies than the Gold Dust Twins! Fred Lynn was the MVP and
Rookie of the year while Jim Rice went on to a Hall of Fame career. And then there was Loooie
whirling and twirling, Dewey’s World Series catch, Carbo’s home run, and Bill Lee being Bill Lee!!
What a collection of characters AND outstanding players. Pitching was a concern but the “Big
Three” of starters Lee, Rick Wise and Loooie combined for 54 wins in tandem with a strong bullpen.
When 1975 drew to a close, the Red Sox had won the East Division, swept the three-peat World
Champion Oakland A’s in the ALCS, and thrilled the country by taking the heavily favored
Cincinnati Reds to seven games in an epic World Series. A season to remember! Herb Crehan is a
