On Sunday, October 28th, 2007, the Boston Red Sox defeated the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field in Denver to win the 103rd World Series four games to none. It was the seventh World Series championship for the Red Sox franchise, as well as the first that was won in Colorado. These are the top five players that I felt most stood out during the series.
