The series follows Boston's improbable 2004 post-season run through the lens of the franchise's complex history and the city's passionate culture, capturing the defining moments when belief and extraordinary talent finally rewarded the city's long-suffering faithful. In doing so, the Red Sox did more than win a championship - they redefined what it meant to believe, both on the field and in the hearts of an entire fanbase.
