Momentum does not appear to play a big role in determining a World Series champion. For every example of a team that seemed to feed off its recent success, there is a counterexample.

I donât know any Boston Red Sox diehards who werenât rooting almost as fervently for the Minnesota Twins against the New York Yankees as they were for their own team against the Anaheim Angels.

They were in Arizona and Oregon, just drafted or soon to be, their memories of the 2004 World Series faint or nonexistent. They were not part of it then, just minor leaguers struggling to make the majors, not yet daring to think of pennants and prizes. Not yet thinking of themselves as Red Sox, a team that made history that ...

It didnât happen at Fenway Park this year, though it was hard to believe the Red Sox werenât the home team on Monday night. The
