The Red Sox has permeated nearly every facet of Bostonist's lives. When they're not live-blogging the games, waxing poetic about the games, thanking Curt Schilling for his splendid work, or telling Dane Cook to watch his hair, they're watching certain presidential candidates hop on the Red Sox bandwagon (sorry, Gothamist). The Sox are so branded on the local brain that people are using the Series to spice up their sex lives. Speaking of spice, Bostonist......

Coyotes 1, Ducks 0 - The Duck's road problems have come home to roost. They were held scoreless against lowly Phoenix in Anaheim last night and couldn't convert on six power plays. Four players -- Ryan Getzlaf, Rob Niedermayer, Mathieu Schneider and Todd Bertuzzi -- missed the game due to injury. Kings 2, Stars 1 - Los Angeles finally snapped a nine game losing streak to Dallas. It also marked the first time in two......

The Boston Red Sox, after coming back from a (reminiscent) 3-1 series deficit, last night beat the Cleveland Indians 11-2 to win the AL Championship Series and secure a spot in the World Series for the second time in four years. The Red Sox held a close 3-2 lead until the seventh inning, when Dustin Pedroia hit a 2-run homer to bring their lead to 5-2. Six runs in the eighth inning clinched the......

Gothamist learned about the craziest urban nightmare come true: A huge python found in the bathroom pipes. It was also a nightmare for some Yankees fans, as manger Joe Torre declined to come back and manage the Bronx Bombers. At least the city's attempt to give some direction to subway riders was interesting, pranksters went shirtless at the Fifth Avenue Abercrombie & Fitch and the I Heart Brooklyn Girls calendars came out. And just......

Angels 7, A's 6 - Francisco Rodriguez blew a save opportunity despite a three run lead. Fortunately, he was saved by Maicer Izturis' RBI single with two out in the bottom of the ninth. Vladimir Guerrero took the day off and while the Halos generated plenty of offense without him, none of the 15 hits left the park. The team's recent home run slump coincides with Vlad's, who hasn't gone yard in 24 games despite......

LAist can't believe it either. The Boston Red Sox are World Series champions. How did the Red Sox break an 86-year "curse?" By thinking outside the box. The Red Sox are the first "Moneyball" team to win a World Series. When John Henry, Tom Werner, and Larry Lucchino took over the Red Sox, they were determined to embrace new ideas which were revolutionizing baseball. So in came Theo Epstein, who hired Bill James and......
