Sox road playoff Games 1's
The last time the Red Sox lost Game 1 in a visitor's park but came back to win Game 2, also in the visiting park, was 1915 World Series against the Giants - when they won the World Series 4-1. (Red Sox lost Game 1's on the road in 95 ALDS, 99 ALDS, 99 ALCS, 03 ALDS, 04 ALCS, and 05 ALDS, and went on to lose Game 2 - also on the road - each time.)
