Argument 63: What Was The Worst Decision Ever Made By A Red Sox Manager?

Book Answer: Grady Little Leaves Pedro Martinez In Too Long

With the Red Sox leading the Yankees in Game Seven of the 2003 ALCS, Pedro Martinez started to feel fatigued. Runners were getting on. Runs were being scored, but Little wouldn't budge. He didn't take Pedro out until it was too late. The Yankees had found themselves right back in the midst of the game. Sadly and unfortunately, we know how the game went. The Red Sox lost to Aaron Boone. Cost them a trip to the Series? That's a pretty bad decision. I almost picked a Bobby V decision, but he'll have his time in the argument series.
