Why This Ticket Matters
On October 27, 2004, the Boston Red Sox defeated the St. Louis Cardinals 3–0 in Game 4 at Busch Stadium to complete a World Series sweep.
Johnny Damon opened the game with a home run, Derek Lowe pitched seven scoreless innings and Keith Foulke recorded the final out. The victory gave Boston its first championship since 1918.
The celebration followed Boston’s unprecedented comeback from a three-games-to-none deficit against the Yankees in the American League Championship Series. This ticket marks the night one of baseball’s longest waits finally ended.
