Stories like this one and this one are the reason why I am a fan this time of the year.

There are a couple of other common denominators at work for two clubs trying to complete big comebacks. Boston is trying to return to the World Series for the first time since 1986 and win it all for the first time since 1918. Houston is trying to reach the World Series for the first time since entering the league in 1962. So if either or both can complete this comeback, that would only be the start of the possible history.
