Probably not. The Sox probably still win the World Series.
But in hindsight, it would have been better for Boston if he had struck out in this at-bat:
The 18-inning affair that ensued (and still resulted in a Red Sox loss) depleted Boston's pitching more than it did the Dodgers...
Also the MLB should be thanking their lucky stars this 7 hour, 20 minute marathon was played in Los Angeles, where the first pitch was thrown out at 5:09 PM local time.
Had it been in Boston, it would have started at 8:09 PM local time (like games one and two), which means it would have ended at 3:29 AM, which I am quite certain would have been a record for the latest conclusion to any sporting event in American history. The T would have stopped running about three hours before that, among other problems.
Yeah I stayed up.
