"The Boston Red Sox will celebrate a century at Fenway Park on Friday when they host the Yankees. The teams will wear vintage uniforms. The Boston Pops will perform the national anthem. Every living person who has played for, coached or managed the Red Sox has been invited, and even some reluctant participants, like the ousted former manager Terry Francona, will be here.
For all that history, though, the current Red Sox would rather not reflect. Their recent history is too bleak. Even an encouraging example from last season, when the team overcame a dreadful start to play well for four months, is no help. Kevin Youkilis, the maligned third baseman, rejected the comparison after a Wednesday loss that dropped the Red Sox to 4-8.
