The Boston Red Sox really
are that great.
David Price proved his
postseason mettle, Steve
Pearce homered twice and
Boston beat the Los Angeles
Dodgers 5-1 on Sunday to
finish off a one-sided World
Series in five games.
Long downtrodden during
decades of despair before
ending an 86-year champi
onship drought in 2004, the
Red Sox have become base
ball’s team of the century
with four titles in 15 seasons.
Alex Cora’s team romped
to a 17-2 start and a club-
record 108 wins, then went
11-3 in the postseason, dis
patching the 100-win New
York Yankees and the
103-victory and defending
champion Houston Astros in
the playoffs. Cora became
the first manager from
Puerto Rico to win a title
and just the fifth rookie man
ager overall.
Pearce hit a two-run
homer on Clayton Kershaw’s
sixth pitch. Solo homers by
Mookie Betts in the sixth
inning and J.D. Martinez
in the seventh quieted the
Dodger Stadium crowd, and
Pearce added a solo drive
off Pedro Baez in the eighth.
Pearce, a June acquisi
tion from Toronto, had three
homers and seven RBIs in
the final two games of the
Series.
After losing to Houston
in Game 7 last year by the
same 5-1 score, the Dodg
ers became the first team

RACE
■ Continued from 1B
Logano won the open
ing race to the third round
of the playoffs by using
the bumper on his Ford to
shove Truex out of his way
on the final lap. The contact
caused both cars to wiggle,
but Truex’s slide was nearly
sideways while Logano cor
rected after a swerve and
straightened himself out
as hurtled across the finish
line.
“I’m a hard racer, I don’t
think that’s a secret to any
one, and we are here to win
a championship this year,”
Logano said.
Eight drivers started
the day vying for the four
spots in the season-finale at
Homestead-Miami Speed
way. Now one of the slots
is gone, to Logano of Team
defeated on its home field
in consecutive World Series
since the New York Giants
by the New York Yankees
at the Polo Grounds in 1936
and ’37.
Boston won its ninth title,
tying the Athletics for third-
most behind the Yankees
(27) and Cardinals (11). All
that stood between the Red
Sox and a sweep was an
18-inning loss in Game 3, the
longest World Series game
ever.
They trailed 4-0 in the
seventh inning of Game 4
when ace Chris Sale rose
from the dugout bench for a
fiery, profane, motivational
rant and woke up for a 9-6
win. Boston never trailed in
Game 5.
The 33-year-old Price, a
Cy Young Award winner in
2012, long pitched under an
October shadow cast by his
regular-season success. He
had been 0-9 in 11 postsea
son starts before defeating
Astros ace Justin Verlander
in the clinching Game 5 of
the AL Championship Series.
He won his third straight
start Sunday and became
the first pitcher to beat Cy
Young winners in the finale
of an LCS and the World
Series in the same year.
After allowing two runs
over six inning to win Game
2 last Wednesday, Price got
two outs in the ninth inning
of Friday’s marathon game.
He became the first to
pitch into the eighth inning
of a Series game on one day
of rest since the Yankees’
Bob Turley in 1957.

Penske, and NASCAR’s so-
called “Big 3” is still trying
to lock down a berth. Truex,
along with Kevin Harvick
and Kyle Busch, dominated
the regular season
and as a trio were
expected to make it
to Miami to race for
the winner-take-all
title.
Instead, Truex
wound up third.
“We should be in
victory lane right
now,” said Truex.
“I was next to him
for six laps, I never knocked
him out of the way. We were
going to race hard for it, in
my book. I cleared him fair
and square. We weren’t even
banging doors.
“And he just drove into
the back of me and knocked
me out of the way.
Yeah, it’s short track rac
ing. But what goes around
comes around.”
Price gave up a home run
to David Freese on his first
pitch, then allowed just two
more hits — the last a triple
to Freese that Martinez lost
in the third-inning twilight
and allowed to drop behind
him in right.
Price struck out five and
walked two, retiring 14 in a
row before a leadoff walk
to Chris Taylor in the eighth
ended his night after 89
pitches. He tapped his heart
several times to Red Sox
fans behind the first base
dugout while walking to the
bench.
Joe Kelly struck out three
straight pinch hitters and
Sale, originally scheduled
to start Game 5, fanned
three more in the ninth.
Sale ended by throwing a
slider past Manny Machado,
a meager 4 for 22 (.182) in
the Series, and raised both
arms as catcher Christian
Vazquez ran out to jump
on him with glee and team
mates from the dugout and
bullpens followed.
While Price rewrote his
own legacy, Kershaw was
unable to change his. He
dropped to 1-4 with a 6.06
ERA in postseason elimi
nation games. Plagued at
times by an aching back,
the 30-year-old lefty no lon
ger is the dominant pitcher
who won three Cy Young
Awards, his famous 12-to-6
breaking ball now more 10
to 4:30.

Logano was aware how he
won was not popular but his
eyes are on the bigger prize.
“He raced really clean
and I laid the bumper to him.
I don’t expect him to
be happy,” Logano
said. “We’ve got to
do what we’ve got
to do, and he’s got
to do what he’s got
to do, and we’ll hash
it out one way or the
other. That’s NAS
CAR racing. That’s
what the grassroots
are, that’s what fans
come here to see. Some may
not like it.”
Logano led a race-high
309 of the 500 laps but had to
contend with Penske team
mate Brad Keselowski in the
waning laps.
That gave time for Truex,
whose Toyota failed inspec
tion prior to the race so he
started 31st, to close in on
the leaders.
