Description
With a final score of 4-3, the Boston Red Sox ran onto the field in celebration, winning the 2007 World Series. The win went to Jon Lester, and Aaron Cook took the loss in his first start since August 10th in the regular season. The Colorado Rockies were swept 4 games to none, and lost this one despite a stellar 3 inning appearance from their bullpen. Home runs for the Red Sox came from Mike Lowell and Bobby Kielty. Lowell would wind up winning series MVP. Brad Hawpe and Garret Atkins hit home runs in the losing effort from the Rockies.

“At the end of the day, you look back on the game. How did you execute?” Rockies manager Clint Hurdle said. “They executed better than us all four games.”

Despite a solid effort from the Rockies, the Red Sox were soaking it up in their night of glory.

“It took all 25 of us to get the job done,” Jonathan Papelbon said. “It’s just phenomenal.”

Jason Varitek, who had been a source of leadership for this team all year, gave a quote to sum up this 2007 Red Sox season.

“This team’s got a lot of heart,” Varitek said. “We worked really hard. We just beat a very, very good team, an excellent team. We had to do the little things.”
