The Red Sox win their 9th Championship and 4th since 2004 by defeating the Dodgers, 5 – 1, in Game 5 of the World Series. David Price pitches 7 strong innings after allowing a lead-off homer to David Freese, but not before Boston had taken a 2 – 0 lead on a homer by Steve Pearce off Clayton Kershaw. Mookie Betts, J.D. Martinez and Pearce all hit solo shots later in the game to put the score out of reach, while Joe Kelly and Chris Sale combine to strike out the last six Dodgers batters in order. Pearce is named winner of the World Series Most Valuable Player Award.

The Red Sox and Astros are caught in an epic see-saw duel in Game 4 of the ALCS before Boston comes out on top, 8 – 6. The game features both starting pitchers being chased by the end of the 4th inning, a home run negated by fan interference, and a diving catch with the bases loaded by Andrew Benintendi in left field to end the game, among many highlights.
