The Red Sox earned their third walk-off win of the season Friday night. That ranks near the bottom of the majors, and that actually makes sense. Great teams tend to win big, so they don’t get into situations where a walk-off win is needed. The Dodgers have just one walk-off win, the Indians and Diamondbacks two, the Red Sox three and the Cubs four. The Giants lead the majors with eight, but they are falling out of the NL West race. The good teams near the top are the Brewers and Braves, both with seven. Walk-off wins are exciting, but don’t correlate well to the overall quality of the team.
In the like father like daughter category, I was at the Red Sox game on July 14th when they won on a tenth inning home run, and my daughter was at Fenway last night for the tenth inning walk-off home run win.
