Editorial Reviews

From Babe Ruth to Bucky Dent to being down three-games-to-none in the 2004 ALCS, there is no rivalry in all of sports that can match the intensity of the one between the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees.

The new millennium has brought renewed vigor to this annual summer showdown — so steeped in history — as now it truly is a rivalry between two equal foes. Everything about the new age of this rivalry can be found from the years 2003 to 2005, and Red Sox vs. Yankees: The Ultimate Rivalry does just that, with superior access, exclusive interviews, incredible footage and players wired for sound.

There is no rivalry in baseball quite like the one that takes place in the shadow of The Bleacher Creatures and The Green Monster. And there is no more in-depth coverage of the 21st century version of this rivalry, than Red Sox vs. Yankees: The Ultimate Rivalry.

Its a fine DVD, but it is all 2003-2005 and forgot the Pedro era, the 1999 ALCS. They act like the rivalry is a new thing. We need more!

3.0 out of 5 stars Video could have been more accurate!, May 5, 2006

The video could have been better if it included more information and footage from the past. It seems to concentrate too much on the past couple of years. The makers of this video would have viewers believe that the rivalry between the Red Sox and Yankees began with the sale of Babe Ruth. If they had done some research, they would have known that the rivalry extends back further. The Sox and Yankees have battled each other since the early 1900s. The Red Sox were the first team to play at Yankee Stadium against the Yankees and the Yankees were the first to play at Fenway Park in April 1912. The rivalry extends back to the competition between the two east coast cities which goes back to the 1800s. The video skims over the fact that the Yankees of the 1920s built many of their early championships by acquiring key players and a manager from the Red Sox organization.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, March 8, 2007

This review is from: Red Sox vs. Yankees: The Ultimate Rivalry (DVD)

Nowhere near as good as it could have been - considering all the material over the years there was to play with. Shame.
