There were no playoffs back then. Win the most games in the regular season and your team wins the League Pennant and a trip to the World Series.

As a Yankee fan in NY, I'm glad the Sox still play at Fenway Park. The place has history and character and charm, something lost in all these new stadiums.

I was lucky enough to see Tony C.'s last homer in the Majors during his last comeback attempt in 1975. Being there gave me a glimpse of what a true star Tony would have been but for that devastating fastball he took. He may be the greatest tragedy in baseball.

I was age 18,and heading off to UMass-Boston. We got to watch the World Series on a TV set that was brought into the student lounge... which was PACKED to the rafters! Almost everyone was cutting a class here and there, and some classes were actually cancelled ( with a wink wink from the teacher!)

I was a 12 yr old Little League player in Bangor Maine and I loved playing the game of baseball! But watching the game on T.V? Why bother? From what my dad told me that the RedSox we're perennial losers season after season and hadn't had a winning team since Ted Williams one of the greatest hitters ever in MLB. But after finishing my last year of Little League, which always ended, the regular season that is, and not being picked as an all-star my season was done before the 4th of July. Then I noticed dad and my Uncle Joe would drop by our house and they were always tuned in to a RedSox game. I asked dad how were the Sox doing this year? He said surprisingly decent this year playing over .500 ball. Yaz became my hero and the rest was history!!! Tim Dionne

This was awesome. I was 9 years old in 4th grade and I was pulling for the Red Sox that year. Tony Conigliaro was my favorite player. Amazing season and I still remember it well. Great to see this piece; I don’t hear the ‘67 Red Sox talked about too much anymore, but they should be.

Thank you for this video. I was in college in Boston during 67 and this sure brought back memories. First half of the season you could walk in and get a ticket, this changed in the second half. I went to Logan with some college buddies when they returned from their 10-game winning streak, we actually got on the roof of the terminal to get a good view, probably couldn't do that today. With all the craziness going on in the 60s this was sure a bright spot.

I was a teen in the 60's, playing for my high school team. Sox were so bad we would joke that we had a chance of beating them. From 1960-66 the Red Sox averaged finishing 29 games out of first place. They were pathetic and so was their ballpark. It was a dump. The Impossible dream was just that, an impossible dream that changed everything going forward.

I can remember watching on TV38. Conigliaro , Longborg, Yaz, Petrocelli Bleacher seats were .50cents. We’d cut school to go to a game. Back then guys stayed with the team their whole career practically. Good times. Imagine, Yaz made $37,000 a year his last year. Guys today make that every inning

I hate to let you know this, but my dad's law partner Hugh Killebrew, cousin of the Twins' Harmon Killebrew, who talked Lonborg into skiing Heavenly Valley after the 1967 season, owned by his wife's family, where he broke his leg and was never the same.

Why was there no mention of Lee Stange? Jim Lonborg won the Cy Young, but, statistically, Stange, who tied Gary Bell for second-most starts for the Sox that year, was better, including the best ERA among Red Sox starters, and not by a little.
