The Comeback: 2004 Boston Red Sox is one of Netflix’s new October releases and chronicles the Red Sox’s 2004 World Series win and the end of the infamous Curse of the Bambino. When my aunt, grandmother, and father realized they had a brief appearance in The Comeback, they were delighted, as Bostonians and lifelong Red Sox fans. My dads side of the family has been in the Boston area since the late 1800s, so to say the Curse of the Bambino was personal to my family would be a massive understatement.
