But the best Red Sox player....

....was George Herman "Babe" Ruth.



Of course, the Red Sox had little use for a great player who helped them win three World Series titles in six seasons. So in 1919, the Sox doltishly sold Ruth to the New York Yankees, where he achieved a Hall of Fame pedigree in addition to leading the pin stripers to four championships!

Perhaps the best Yankees team ever

The 1939 World Series Champions (107-45).

Not as famous as some other teams, but widely viewed by experts (well, experts who know what they're talking about) as the greatest baseball team ever. They scored 76 more runs than any other AL team and allowed 144 fewer. Their scoring differential of 411 runs is the best in major league history. Joe DiMaggio (.381, 126 RBIs) led an offense that featured five regulars with .400-plus on-base percentages, while 21-game winner Red Ruffing was one of seven hurlers to win 10 or more games.
