The New York Yankees could not pull a 2004 Boston Red Sox and ended up getting swept by the Houston Astros in the ALCS.
NESN's Lauren Willand takes a look at how the Yankees tried to use the 2004 ALCS when the Red Sox rallied from a 3-0 deficit to beat New York and ultimately end the 86-year World Series victory drought. Lauren also looks at Pedro Martinez's funny comments about "Who's Your Daddy?" and relives when that happened in 2004 and why the ALCS wasn't so bad if you were a Red Sox fan.
Lauren also drops her World Series prediction before discussing how much Rich Hill believes Xander Bogaerts should be a Red Sox for life, but for reasons that stem beyond the baseball diamond.
As always, Lauren ends the show with the mental health minute!
