The celebrations are just beginning again for Red Sox fans eager to bask in the glory of the 2004 team that broke the curse.
The 20th anniversary of Boston’s first World Series title in 86 years is rapidly approaching. With that, comes a highly anticipated documentary from Netflix looking back on that championship squad.
“The Comeback: 2004 Boston Red Sox” debuts Oct. 23 on Netflix, four days before the actual anniversary of Boston’s unforgettable Fall Classic win in St. Louis. On Friday, Netflix dropped its first teaser, looking back at the famous midsummer brawl between the Red Sox and Yankees.
While there’s been no shortage of content made about the 2004 Red Sox over the last 20 years, Netlfix hopes this documentary will unearth some stories fans haven’t heard, taking them behind the scenes for one of the most improbable sports stories of all time.
“Through making this docuseries, we got to experience all of the things that players got to experience: being on the team plane, in the clubhouse, in the decision room of baseball operations,” director Colin Barnicle told TheWrap.com. “Everybody knows what happened. We want them to know how it happened.”

The three-episode docuseries is just one of the Red Sox-focused projects Netflix is working on this year. The company also announced earlier this year it would cover the 2024 club throughout the season for a behind-the-scenes documentary about the team.
The release date for that project hasn’t been revealed yet.
