Comeback Kings?

Regardless of how you feel about the Red Sox, what they've done tonight is pretty incredible.

The Red Sox managed to rally back from a 7-0 against the mighty Rays to win Game 5 of the American League Championship Series 8-7. Determined not to end the postseason with a devastating loss at home, Boston struck back as they staged a late comeback. The Red Sox know what it takes to stave off elimination in the ALCS, coming back from a 3-0 against the Yankees in 2004 and a 3-1 against the Indians last year. Could this be another year for the Red Sox Nation?

Whether or not they end up winning the World Series, or even the ALCS (hey, the Rays might just crush them Saturday, who knows?), this is one for the books.

Cubbies, I hope you're taking notes.

Wes Represents NYC

Two of our Wesleyan Alumns, Majora Carter '88 and Jeffrey Maier '06, were featured in New York Magazine's special 40th Anniversary Issue as having an important impact on NYC's history in the past 40 years.

Majora was nominated by Princeton University Professor Joshua Guild as the 10th most inflential New Yorker in the past 40 years (ranking with the likes of Barbara Walters, Spike Lee, and Mayor Bloomberg) for creating her organization Sustainable South Bronx and greening the neighborhood.

Jeffrey was featured as the 12 year-old-kid who tipped Derek Jeter's fly ball into the stands in 1996, which ultimately led to the Yankees entering the World Series and winning after an 18 year slump. While the article cites that Maier currently lives in (enemy borders) Boston, he's still remembered as a major "headliner".

With half of Wesleyan living in NYC, it's about time we get recognized!
