The Boston Red Sox began its World Series title defense by winning the Major League Baseball season opener 6-5 against the Oakland Athletics (the A's) at Tokyo Dome on March 25.

But the A's came back the following day with a 5-1 victory over the Red Sox on March 26 in the finale.

The focus had been on the Red Sox, who had won two titles in four seasons, and with Japanese stars Daisuke Matsuzaka and Hideki Okajima, they were the clear favorites. (AP)
