Early voting in our latest
FenwayNation Poll shows an
overwhelming preference for the Red Sox facing-off against the Milwaukee Brewers rather than the Los Angeles Dodgers. As the chart shows, fully 76% would like the
The Carmine Hose to take on
The Brew Crew in the
Fall Classic, while only 24% would rather duke it out with
The Denizens Of Chavez Ravine. Clearly, there are interesting facets to
both potential match-ups—but the "sexiness" factor would be off-the-charts with a Red Sox-Dodgers series—one which
FOX would
surely love as well. The image of
Dave Roberts returning to the scene of his 2004 heroics for the Red Sox would be special theatre. However, the Brewers are an
extremely talented ballclub—with the likely National League MVP
Christian Yelich in their line-up. And, of course, the return to Boston of 30-home-run guy
Travis Shaw would be interesting (although
Tyler Thornburg would be nowhere to be found). You can still vote in the
