Five Years On, Red Sox Still Waiting for a Playoff Series Win
Original: Five years since last Red Sox playoff series win, a lack of power defines recent losses https://www.nytimes.com/athletic
The Boston Red Sox have now gone five years since their last playoff series victory, and their recent postseason exits share a common thread: an absence of power hitting. Coverage points to a lineup that could not generate the big bats needed in October, with the lack of offensive firepower defining their latest early departure and fueling debate about roster construction.
Why now: The Red Sox were just eliminated from the playoffs, prompting reflection on five years of postseason futility.
