NYPost gives Sox fictional victory!

One unexpected place that distraught Red Sox fans can look for solace Friday is on the editorial page of the New York Post, one of the hometown papers of the team's rival.

The Post redid 12 inside pages, as well of the front and back of the tabloid, early Friday to get in the result of the come-from-behind victory of the New York Yankees over the Red Sox, a game that ended after midnight and knocked the Boston team out of the World Series.

But someone on the paper staff grabbed the wrong version of the two editorials that had been prepared to comment on the game. The one that did run bemoaned the Yanks' loss to the Red Sox.
