Red Sox breeze to second World Series title in 4 years, beating Rockies 4-3

DENVER — Gone are those pleading, pathetic days when the Red Sox [team stats] were practically begging to win a World Series. There’s a new monster in baseball, and it’s in Boston.

Overwhelming in every way, the Red Sox swept to their second title in four years Sunday night. Jon Lester [stats], Mike Lowell & Co. left little room for drama with a 4-3 win over the Colorado Rockies in Game 4.

Then again, no NL team could have blocked Boston this October.

This was hardly a repeat from 2004, when the Red Sox ended their 86-year championship drought by beating St. Louis. Boston is a major league bully these days, playing in rarefied air before crowds who demand to win.

At this rate, New England fans might get spoiled. Manager Terry Francona’s team has become a perfect counterpart to coach Bill Belichick’s bruisers on the Patriots [team stats].

After rallying from a 3-1 deficit against Cleveland in the AL championship series, the Red Sox won seven straight games and won their seventh World Series crown.

The Rockies, who won a remarkable 21 of 22 games to get this far, were a mere afterthought by the end. Brad Hawpe homered in the seventh inning and Garrett Atkins hit a two-run shot in the eighth that came too late.
