Many blame the "Ruth hex" for the Red Sox not winning a World Series (after Ruth was sold to the Yankees) until 2004.

I see it different....I'd prefer to call it the Red Sox "100-year hex"....because in 1904, McGraw and his NY Giants refused to play Boston in the World Series.

In any event, one could make a good argument for a " 3rd hex " .... that occurred at Fenway Park on April 16, 1945.

What happened that Spring day in '45 in Beantown, that most likely prevented the Red Sox from being Champions for quite a few more years ?
