Final Thoughts:
This Red Sox team is up there with the '98 Yankees and 2016 Cubs as one of the greatest baseball teams in my lifetime.

As for the Dodgers, they have questions. What will happen with Manny Machado? And what will happen with Clayton Kershaw.

Once again, the 2018 Boston Red Sox win the 2018 World Series.

This is the End of the 2018 MLB Season. This concludes another year of 'Live Blogging on Shish on Baseball', on either www.paulshishkoffjr.com and www.shishonsports.com.
