How the Boston Red Sox roster timeline game works
Put Red Sox players in order of the year each one joined Boston. The game starts with one player on the line and his year in view. Each new card gives a name and a position, anything from shortstop to relief pitcher, and you pick a gap. A correct pick reveals the year; a wrong one still moves him to his true position and takes away one of your three lives.
Boston was a charter member of the American League, so the roster goes back to the very beginning, when the team wasn't yet called the Red Sox. Early cards come from the club's first great teams, then a long middle stretch of big hitters and near misses leads to the recent title runs. Fenway lifers are the real trap, since many of them arrived young and stayed for ages.
