Alex Cora’s Trash Talk, a Big Papi Cameo and More Highlights From the Red Sox’ World Series Parade
For the fourth time in 15 years, the Boston Red Sox and their fans are celebrating a World Series title.
After clinching the series with a 5–1 Game 5 win over the Dodgers Sunday night, the Red Sox took the streets in duck boats on Wednesday for their 2018 World Series parade through Boston. The parade, which started at approximately 11 a.m. ET, started at Fenway Park and concluded near Boston's Government Center.
The city had a lot to celebrate. Before clinching the World Series title, the Red Sox were also the best team in baseball, winning 108 games in the regular season and going 11–3 in the postseason. Their combined 119 wins is the third best in MLB history.
