Piecesof8 and a tiny bit: I guess Ben does have contact with the outside world.

Or there’s a dharma stadium somewhere and he’s got all the others to dress up as baseball players and stage a victory….. thaty what Jack would think if he was a Yankee fan.

The thing that they won it right after his dad died

LOL Exactly! Not the Re-election or anything! hahahah

Jacob probably told Ben that jack would respond to it hence the look of surprise on Ben's face that jacob knew what he was talking about. Same way as he did with hurley.

@@toptenguy1bush didn’t become hated untill after the election

Ben always hated being called a liar.

He’s probably a baseball fan.

Fuck yes!!!!! BACK TO FOULKE

Nah, the writers planned that.

I think the first reference to it happened after they won the series.

The Sox won within the first two months of the show airing, Christian didn’t say that line abou the Red Sox until after half way through season 1. They knew.

Four Days in October still brings tears to my eyes wen i watch it.

D.L. Elliott watching as a die hard Cubs fan prior to when they had won I would always think, "Is that what it's gonna feel like?"

I love that '04 championship run by Boston, 4 days in October is one of my favorite documentaries, but then the Red Sox won the '07 championship and Red Sox fans became the most obnixious fan base in sports.

YUP!

@@dezza2001 Same

Yep. And the aftermath of Game 7 of the 2004 ALCS will ALWAYS be THE greatest moment in the history of Yankee Stadium!

@@anglobostonian YEP

Tc zw m swsa c.

Everyone roots for the underdog. I bet Yankee fans were quietly thinking “well done Boston”

This scene is so awesome, but it's not even in my top five scenes of the show. That's how awesome I think Lost is.

I'm an Aussie...I LOVE ME RED SOX...

Yea, tears of anger.lol

I think this scene is amazing, but it's not in my top five. It just means this show is awesome from top to bottom.

If you wanted me to believe this you probably should have picked somebody else besides the Cubs.

Theirs got predicted on Parks and Recreation.

If I was on the island in 2016

Lol. In my home city Glasgow, Scotland. There’s a flashback where Desmond is drunkenly singing a Celtic football club song. I bet Glasgow Rangers, Lost fans felt the same way as you. You think the Yankee and Red Sox have an intense rivalry?? When Celtic plays rangers in Glasgow, people shut their shops and board up their windows. Probably the busiest day of the year for “Police Scotland” It’s like a tribute to the blitz….

Yeah, we won in '07, '13, and '18 since then, insane right?

@@TheLowBrassDude 18 doesn't count tho 😞

Sounds cheesy but that proves t curse existed only in the minds of the players. Once they knew they could do it, there was no cosmic force holding them back, they started playing better. Confidence man, it’s all confidence. The century of losses were the struggle nature used to make the Sox stronger.

Definitely tha the Sox won. His father always used to say the Sox would never win the series and also used to say Jack doesn't have what it takes and Jack believed him both times. When he sees that the Sox won it made him wonder what else his father was wrong about philosophically

You’re a nice guy. What other type of guy wants to see his rivals share the joy of a victory. You empathise with them because all that was needed for you to be a Sox fan is your mom to have decided to move to Boston before you were born…..

And 2018 :)

It's the same

You can’t have a “69 day” You’d suffocate….

Graeme Daulby sox*

It’s named the World Series not because it’s open to the world, like the fifa World Cup. But because the tournament was sponsored by a now out of business news paper called “the New York world” It’s the world’s series meaning belonging to the world, referring to the newspaper, not the planet.

No, I think Ben was trying to give specific stats to Jack so it would sound more believable rather than just saying “No seriously they won the Series”
