    This is Old News, But I Blame Kruse

    By Jeremy | January 10, 2005

    Had I had a blog in October, I would have written then about the little known man most singularly responsible for reversing the Curse of the Bambino and lifting the Red Sox out of their 86-year misery: Matthew Kruse. With the Sox down 0-3 in the ALCS to the Yankees, Matt preached "The Red Sox Sermon" at his "culturally relevant" church plant in Malden, MA, a Boston suburb. Later that evening, the impossible happened as the Sox tied the game against the fiercest closer in MLB history and went on to win in extra innings. They didn't lose again and won their first World Series since 1918. Funny Kruse didn't get more credit (blame!) in the mainstream press, but at least one local newspaper saw the correlation.
