The Boston Red Sox: Essential Games Of Fenway Park [DVD]

Since the picture on the box was too small for me to read and the product description didn't tell me anything I wanted to know, I contacted A&E to find out which games are included in this collection. Here is their response:DISC 1: Sept. 30, 1967 Regular Season vs Minnesota Twins--Carl Yastrzemski hit his 44th home run as the Sox tied for the lead in a four-team American League pennant race.DISC 2: 1975 World Series Game 6 vs the Cincinnati Reds--This see-saw battle of the Titans ended with Carlton Fisk and his 12th inning game-ending home run.DISC 3: Apr. 29, 1986 Regular Season vs Seattle Mariners--23-year-old Roger Clemens set the Major League record with 20 strikeouts in this hallmark game.DISC 4: 1999 Major League Baseball All-Star Game and MLB All-Century Team celebration--Fenway Park was selected to house the final Mid-Summer Classic of the 20th Century and the festivities riveted the world.DISC 5: 1999 American League Championship Series Game 3 vs New York Yankees--Red Sox ace Pedro Martinez shutdown the vaunted Yankees and former Boston pitcher Roger Clemens with 12 strikeouts over 7 innings.DISC 6: Apr. 22, 2007 Regular Season vs New York Yankees--Boston dispensed with its archrival Yankees in large part thanks to four consecutive home runs.Extras:The Origins of Fenway ParkTed Williams: Fenway's Hometown HeroTed Williams Throws out First Pitch at 1999 All-Star GameVintage Film: Yaz 1968 World Series Highlights at FenwayYaz 400th HR and 3000th hitRed Sox Clinch 1986 ALCS in FenwayBrunansky's amazing catch clinches 1990 AL East CrownLast inning of Derek Lowe's No-Hitter (4/27/02)Red Sox score 10 runs before making their first out (6/27/03)Bill Mueller walk-off HR vs. Mariano Rivera (7/24/04)Dave Roberts: "The Steal" 2004 ALCS Game 4Big Papi's 2004 Postseason Walk-off HitsLast inning of Clay Buchholz's No-Hitter (9/1/07)

Here is a disk set that captures some of the greatest games from the "Pahk" meant for Red Sox Nation or any big fan of baseball. The games are complete coverege, so one gets to see what happened in the first almost dozen innings BEFORE Fisk's magical "Stay Fair, Stay Fair" walk off. One disc meets the criteria because of how Martinez pitched in the '99 All Star, but after the first few innings there are many other contemporary heroes to watch.By far...for the Nation....the single reason to buy this set is for the Bonus features. Seeing the footage of #9, then his appearance at the All Star Game in 1999 at Fenway. Enjoy more clips from our heroes like Yaz in '67 thru "The Greatest Comeback in the History of Sports". Grab some peanuts, Cracker Jacks & dust off the New Era cap and revel in the magical moments of Baseball's most historical field & team!

Was disappointed in this boxed set in that with the history of Fenway Park, so much was omitted! I expected it to be highlights, not entire, complete games! It did not include anything with the old-timers such as Ted Williams, Jim Rice, Carl Yazstremski, etc. Too little content for too much money. Save your $$$$.

This is a great DVD and a must have for any Boston Red Sox fan!

Love this DVD!!!! Brings back great memories!!!

Love the dvd great dvd for any sports fan

I loved the set, I just don't understand the inclusion of the 'Yastrzemski Game.' There is simply not much footage available of Yastrzemski in his hey-day. The game is titled the 'Yastrzemski Game,' but in my opinion, he did not win the title cleanly, as Killebrew robbed him of his triple crown in the 9th inning of that game. Therefore, isn't there a better game in which we could watch Yastrzemski play? Otherwise, the rest of the set is fine.

As a Sox fan and an old baseball game junkie - I have about 30 dvds with old games on them, I figured it would be hard for me not to want this. BUT the game selection is uninspiring. I already have 2 of them (75 WS GM 6 & the game from 1967).Why would they include the entire game from 2007 with the 4 homeruns in a row when that WAS the hi-lite of the game while only showing Bill Mueller's walk off HR from the game on 7/24/04? The 7/24/04 game with the A-Rod brawl and the great Red Sox comeback is the one that should be shown in its entirety - it is pretty much my favorite regular season game I've ever watched.The only one I'd really pay to see again is Pedro in the '99 ALCS - so I may try to pick this up on the cheap on Ebay some day.

内容は、素晴らしいの一言につきます。本当の野球ファンの中には、ただひたすら中継を見ていたいという人も多いのではないかと思います。メジャーリーグ最高峰の試合で闘っている化け物たちのどの一球も見逃したくないと言うファンには絶対にオススメです。不満は、送られてきたケースがいろいろな箇所で凹みやキズがあったこと。もう少し状態のいい品物が届くと期待していました。
