The ‘75 Red Sox were a magical team. A very fun year; even with Carlton Fisk’s heroics in Game 6, I still find myself thinking about the more fun year of ‘67, The Impossible Dream team. However, we mustn’t forget about Jim Rice’s rookie year, also 1975. If he hadn’t been hit by a pitch towards the end of the season, and been able to play through the World Series, things may have ended differently.

Thanks for reading and contributing. Great point on HOFer Jim Rice not being in the '75 WS. He would have made a difference for sure!

Might be Freddie Lynn, Mark. Was a helluva rookie year!

I first went to USC after Fred Lynn left but we followed him as one of our own!
