The Indians were leading and could see the World Series until the Boston Red Soxs put on their game face and tore apart the Cleveland Indians to steal their 12th pennant and advancing them to the World Series.

“Baseball fans have long debated which is worse: a tight, agonizing game that ends in defeat, or a blowout that turns hope into folly. In the Indians' final game of 2007, their fans suffered both” as quoted from the Wall Street Journal.

Such defeat in the final hours before the most coveted game of all, will deal a harsh blow to all die hard Cleveland Fans. Since reaching the World Series is rare, the fight to get there is gratifying and dirty work – where will the fans turn to next year. Hopefully the Indians can keep up their game and avoid a pitfall as such and win one for their fans.
